Hello all,
Not sure if this is the best forum thread to post this but here goes.... I have a friend in the US who was out shooting a star trail image a night or two ago and he has picked up a couple of intriguing objects.
His words -"I was wondering if anyone could explain what the little dashes going against the grain of the stars are in this startrail animation. You can see one on the right and a curved one in the lower left. Geosynchronous satellites is the only thing I can think of. Each frame is about 12-13 minutes, or about 40 minutes for the whole animation. This was shooting south towards Orion, cropped in from a 50mm trail."
You can view the animation here.

Wondering if anyone else has any advances on the Geosynchronous Satellite theory?
Cheers
Greg
