Hi. After many missed attempts, i snagged a partial transit
It was only a matter of time before i captured one as the planes fly almost always the same heading departing for Melbourne and sometimes Sydney and Brisbane.
This one was on it's way to Melbourne after departing Adelaide. The flight info is on the attached pic, although i think they used a different pic description of the plane as it looks different to the one in my image.
Camera- 500D @ prime focus, manually depressed shutter(no remote)
Mount-EQ3 RA tracking
Telescope-C102-HD Achro Refractor.
Captured in RAW image file. The Moon was a tad over exposed in the origional image so i toned it down a bit in PS.
I hope you like it as much as i do
I like how the left engines vapor trail distorts the Moon and how the right engines vapor almost looks like it is reflecting Moon light.
