markhumpage > ISS & Space Shuttle Atlantis racing across the UK skies at 1657hrs on Nov 20 2009. It was the brightest body in the twilight skies at a magnitude of -3.3. Atlantis has been docked since Nov 18th 2009 and makes a great night time subject to capture. Taken with Olympus E3, 7-14mm lens of F4.0 for a total period of 2 mins 45s (11x15s continuous exposures). I lit up with tree with a strong torch for the duration of a couple of 15s exposures. The International Space Station is the biggest, brightest object orbiting Earth. The station's solar arrays span 240-feet from tip to tip, almost as wide as a football field. The ISS outshines Venus; only the sun and Moon are brighter.
markhumpage > Startrail taken at home on the clear night of Sept 09 2009. Started at 2000hrs and let camera capture exposure every 15s all night till sunrise on following day. Just under 2000 workable exposures run through startrails.de software, imported into Aperture for fine tuning. Taken with Olympus E3, 7-14mm
markhumpage > International Space Station (ISS) captured passing the Leics, UK skyline 2100hrs_10 Sep 09. Jupiter can be seen just to the right of the lit tree and below the path of the ISS. Really pleased with the capture. The ISS came into view to the sth and it looked like a fireball as it moved twds the Eastern earth shadow. In the sky. F3.5, 213s ISO 200 captured with Oly E3 & 8mm fisheye.
markhumpage > Stunning noctilucent display from 14 July 2009 Leics, UK. This was such an intense display and so early compared to previous sightings, 10.30pm. There was lots of cloud cover too but such was the intensity of the electric blues that it made hardly any difference! Taken with Olympus E3 & 12-60mm SWD

markhumpage > Really pleased with this startrail. Only managing approx 5hrs of darkness because of the long days. Taken between 1030pm and sunrise following day. May 31 2009 in Sth Leics, UK. Love the opposite curvature of the trails above and below the celestial equator. Olympus E3, 7-14mm lens. Just over 1000 exposures stacked in startrails.
markhumpage > This Startrail was captured using my 2nd camera on March 29th 2009 in my backyard, Leics at the same time as the landscape image previous. For the first time in a long time clear skies were forecast all night. I set my Olympus E3 camera with 7-14mm wide angle lens and left it running all night. 15s exposures on continuous shoot. Nearly 1500 images stacked and placed on a single layer in Startrails.de software. Probably one of the most impressive duration startrails I have attempted. 6 1/2 hours of slpendid earth rotation effected by the startrail.
markhumpage > Startrail captured on March 29th 2009 in my backyard, Leics. For the first time in a long time clear skies were forecast all night. I set my Olympus E3 camera with 8mm fisheye lens in an adjacent field on tripod. Rigged up the extension lead to provide continuous power and left it running all night. 15s exposures on continuous shoot. Nearly 1500 images stacked and placed on a single layer in Startrails.de software. Probably one of the most impressive duration startrails I have attempted. 6 1/2 hours of slpendid earth rotation effected by the startrail.
markhumpage > AS SEEN ON ITV. Feb 06 2009. It was so bright out tonight. A great op for lomg exposures and some star trail work. It has taken me all night to stack these in high quality res with PS. Original file size is just over 3 Gig!!!! Two hours worth of trails 15s exposure every 60s. Why 15s in every 60s?.....My cock up, should have been 60s in every 60s. However I have learned a useful lesson in keeping exposure time short. Noise is relativley low on 15s and light pollution is not blowing out the scene. This version has the airplane trails removed. Olympus E3, 7-14mm, ISO 100, 15s, f4
