Description

2022/11/24; 23:51 UT for 2022-11-25; 01:22 UT C14 Edge + ASI 290MM + PM 2X + IR 685 Parsec Observatory, Canoas, Brazil by Avani Soares
I had made many GIFs before, but this one in black and white with a mono camera really surprised me by the 3D feeling it conveys.
60 films of 60 seconds were made with intervals of 60 seconds between films, which totaled about 120 minutes (2 hours) just to capture, which unlike DSOs, you cannot leave the equipment doing /it alone, you always have to be look up.
Each of the films had 8000 frames of which 2000 frames of each were stacked.
Anyway, it's a very time-consuming and laborious process and if we consider that the weather conditions have to be constant during those 2 hours, we can see why good gifs are so rare.
