Another try at odd streaks
Hi Utah astronomy people -- I have uploaded all eight frames from the sequence to my album in the SLAS gallery. Just click on the first one, whose URL I'm including here, then hit "next" to see all eight. I took them the night of Nov. 26, 2014 while sitting on my front porch. The first six photos were taken at 10:59 p.m., the last two at 11 p.m. Remember, these are crappy images so don't expect much detail -- I was trying out my new iPhone to see if it could record starlight, aiming generally toward Orion which was easily visible. On several you can see the stars of Orion's belt. Each time I hit the button the flash went off, illuminating the juniper beside the porch. I could see the strange phenomenon as it happened, without looking at the camera's view. My impression was of a broad fast sweep first coming down then arching up and to the left and perhaps down again. It seemed like a diffuse brightness. I kept pushing the button the whole time. I actually had the impression that it happened so fast that I missed it between views. Here's the first view: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=6063 I would appreciate your thoughts. Thanks, Joe
Joe, have you tried using your iPhone but not using the flash? Now you've got me wanting to experiment with mine.

Seth, I have a Galaxy S5, and the camera is pretty spiffy. 16MP resolution and lots of interesting features. I've been experimenting with it for solar and lunar shots. I'm getting more and more impressed with the capabilities of smartphone cameras. Here is a lunar shot taken about a month ago, afocally through a 50mm f/12 refractor, using the smartphone: http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii24/JethroTull1958/002a_zps2d29b864.jpg And here is a shot of the recent partial solar eclipse, same phone but a 50mm f/9 refractor & Baader solar filter material: http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii24/JethroTull1958/001a_zps8742359c.jpg Copy and paste the links into your browser window if they don't come across as live links. I have the Orion universal smartphone bracket to hold it up to the eyepiece. Takes some fiddling but worth it once adjusted. There are also cable releases available for most smartphones, that plug into the headphone jack. Check eBay or Amazon for your particular model.

At least with an iphone, there is no need to buy a separate cable release to remotely trigger the shutter. Simply connect your ear buds (they must have volume controls on the cable) and press the "+" volume control button on the ear bud's cable. Viola, you have just fired your shutter with a free cable release. Happy remote shuttering!

That's a good tip, Mat, I'll try it with my Android earbuds- if I can find them, lol. I have a stereo bluetooth headseat that I typically use for music and in-the-car calls. Can't stand wired earphones. These smartphone cable releases are only about four or five bucks. On Tue, Dec 2, 2014 at 9:49 AM, Hutchings, Mat <mat.hutchings@siemens.com> wrote:

There's also an iOS app called "Manual" that lets you control all aspects of the camera--simulated aperture, shutter speed, ISO, etc. One that Dad and I experimented with was a remote shutter that used another iOS device as the shutter--so we set his iPad up on a tripod, then used an iPhone to trigger the shutter. There was a live view and everything with on the iPhone--I think it'd do up to 30 second exposures. It was called "Long Exposure" IIRC.

If people were paying attention, they would have noticed some darn good smart phone pics in the last couple of SLAS photo contests. On Tue, Dec 2, 2014 at 10:16 AM, Joan Carman <jcarman6@q.com> wrote:

Sorry Joe, your initial topic of what the streaks in your smart phone images are has been sidetracked (perhaps the term is hijacked) to astronomical smart phone applications in general. Indeed it is an interesting subject. Any volunteers for a future society presentation, probably in the summer, regarding just how far you can take a smart phone in astronomy???? The first 4 months have already been set: Von Del Chamberlain in January; Dr. Anil Seth (black holes) in February; creating your own observing program in March with Lowell Lyon; and Physics Family Fun Night in April. I'm reserving May for a presentation on the big bang theory/cosmology for you Ed. Don't have a speaker in mind yet, suggestions welcome, but there is time. Met a neighbor of Lowell's who has tentatively agreed to speak on dangers to earth from beyond. It will be much more than the Tunguska event. Just last February such an event took place in Russia (this board was abuzz) causing millions of dollars in damage and injuries. Chuck is right about the astronomical pictures those phones can take. He posted some impressive images and Sigfried showed me such a photo at the advanced training session recently. Such photos could be an entry (term use loosely here)and inexpensive way to explore the universe for well-learned enthusiasts as well as beginners. A valid general meeting subject if ever there was one. Still, would like to see some good ideas about what those streaks were, flying rods and fish included. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chuck Hards" <chuck.hards@gmail.com> To: "Utah Astronomy" <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Tuesday, December 2, 2014 10:56:23 AM Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] Another try at odd streaks If people were paying attention, they would have noticed some darn good smart phone pics in the last couple of SLAS photo contests.

Dryer lint from the neighbor's laundry vent? Loose feathers from a startled bird roosting in the shrub? Bits of litter kicked up by a breeze or passing car? Stray strands of spider web silk drifting by? Puffs of smoke from a doobie being used by Joe's neighbor for medicinal purposes? On Tue, Dec 2, 2014 at 12:50 PM, Joan Carman <jcarman6@q.com> wrote:
