Birds in H-Alpha

[cshahar]

Some Canada geese flying through the field as they migrate south for the winter season. These are really the single frames of the video, comprising 1/50th of a single image derived from a stack. So it is impossible to make them sharp. You can also see the effects of seeing on detail in the sun's chromosphere. It took them about a second to cross the field. I slowed down the speed in this animation. If I hadn't been looking at the computer monitor, it would have been easy to miss them.

Outstanding. I thought it was cool when a plane flew across my view of the moon a few weeks ago. Your video trumps it massively though!

Thanks everyone. It was a fortunate happenstance!
