ISS Flying Forks

Hi,

I tried using a 2x Barlow instead of prime focus and found
out it is almost impossible to hand track at that image scale
Out of a three minute Avi with 5400 frames I only captured the ISS on six frames and this ghostly image is the best one of those,I think it shows a Hires image of the Radiators although I could be wrong.
I also had my shutter speed to fast and lost some detail due to less light.
This image is not much to look at (the body of the ISS missing ) but some may still find it interesting .

Thanks,

Wes Higgins

Hi Wes,
It is quite amazing to me that you are able to capture the ISS in the astonishing detail you do. I am very impressed! Thanks for posting!

Holy cow, that's amazing. What size of scope are you using?

I managed to catch the ISS transiting the moon last night, but I can't hold a candle to your picture. This was done with an Intes MK67 and a Minolta Z2. The video was taken at 15fps, and then stacked in Registax.

MOST EXCELLENT!
Thank you Wes!
