ISS 2014 #1


This year’s first try at photographing the International Space Station from the pass at about 00:11 CEST. Yes, I’ve still got the same wobbly tripod, so the trail is a bit wonky, but it basically worked. Bear in mind that this was taken with a Canon Powershot S5 running CHDK in a single 128-second exposure – this camera is not really designed for such long exposure times and this is why you see the bright sensor noise spot in the top left. There’s another pass in less than an hour at 01:46 CEST with the station flying directly overhead which I will also try to get – and hopefully post tomorrow.
