A NOSS triplet maybe? If so, a great catch!

Cheers,
Jason.

Well believe it or not, second frame same thing but from a different angle. I just looked up and it seems there is indeed a fair bit of traffic up there?

hah mark i may be the only person that thinks it is amazing! it gives a good indication of scale does it not?
i mean fancy looking up and seeing exactly like that

Nothing a Stinger SAM or two wouldn't fix....just don't get caught!!!

That's not a wasted frame -- kappa sigma combine will fix that. : )

Yeah, I know. But I still need one reference frame with no plane in it.

[koputai (Jason)]

Ah, so it's a plane, not three satellites then. Bummer......

Cheers,

Marc, getting away from an airport won't necessarily help. Up at the farm (between Tamworth and Scone) photography within 45 deg of the meridian is difficult before 23:30 or after 05:30. It is on the flight path from Sydney to Brisbane and Cairns. A plane seems to go overhead every 10 minutes or so. Murphy's Law says it will be in frame.

Why? if the stripes are in different places each time, it will be iteratively removed. Only it they are in the same place will it cause a problem..

What do you care, isnt it 3 Stripes and your out?

[Stu Ward]

Heheh when i first looked I thought they were overhead power lines !!!

Hi Pat, yeah I used to like them but I have so many of these I've grown out of them. Just more trails to reject.

I can only reject if I have a reference frame with no line. The more subs the better depending on the rejection algo.

Anyway I've got about 25x10min subs tonight so that should do it. Although the seeing went to s||t pretty quick. By 8:00pm I'd say.

Blimey Marc, that's Murphys law in action for you.
