Description

This is an image of the ISS transiting a very active Sun today at about 11:30am near Chester, NS. The seeing conditions weren't great with pretty high winds but I figured I'd give it a try. I was aiming for a pass through the centre but the website I use was a little off today. This is likely due to some unscheduled ISS course correction.
I took this image with my Nikon D500, 500mm f/4 lens and 1.4x teleconverter (1050mm focal length). I took a 4k video during the transit and then split the frames using PIPP and then combined and colored using Photoshop. My video settings were 1/3200th of a second shutter speed, f/11 and ISO400.
