ශ්‍රී ලංකාවට දිස් වූ රක්ත වර්ණ චන්ද්‍ර ග්‍රහණයේ අදියරයන් 🌘😍

අන්තිමට ඒ Photo එකත් කොහොම හරි ගත්තා. 🛰️

මේ තියෙන්නෙ ජාත්‍යන්තර අභ්‍යවකාශ මධ්‍යස්ථානය (ISS) ඉර ඉදිරියෙන් ගමන් කරද්දි ගත්ත ඡායාරූපයක්. අද මම මේක ගත්තෙ වාද්දුව ප්‍රදේශයේදී. මෙම අභ්‍යවකාශ මධ්‍යස්ථානයේ වේගය පැයට කිලෝමීටර් 28,000 ක් නිසා ඉර ඉදිරියෙන් දර්ශනය වීමට ගත වූ කාලය තත්පර 0.6 ක්. ඔව් තප්පරයකටත් අඩු කාලයක්.

මේ Photo එකේ කලු පාටින් silhouette වෙලා තියෙන්නෙ අභ්‍යවකාශ මධ්‍යස්ථානය ඉර ඉදිරියෙන් ගමන් කරද්දි තප්පර 0.6න් මන් ගත්ත Photo 9 ම. ඊට අමතරව වටේ කලු පාට තිත් තියෙන්නෙ සූර්ය ලප ටික.

මම මීට කලින් හඳ ඉදිරියෙන් ගමන් කෙරූ ජාත්‍යන්තර අභ්‍යවකාශ මධ්‍යස්ථානය (ISS) Photo අරන් තිබ්බත් ඉර ඉදිරියෙන් ගන්න ගිය වෙලාවේ ගොඩක් මග ඇරීම් උනා. සමහර වෙලාවට කාළගුණය අවුල් උනා. අනෙක් සමහර වෙලාවට තප්පරයට අඩු කාලය මැනේජ් කරගන්න මගේ Photography Skill මදි උනා.

ඉර එළිය සහ කැමරාවේ සෙන්සර් බැලන්ස් කරනව කියන්නෙත් වෙනම එකක්. අනික මේක පෙනුනෙ අද දවල් 12.01.31 ට. ඒ කියන්නෙ හරියටම ඉර මුදුන් වෙලාවෙ. Filter එකක් Use කරත් ලොකු වෙලාවක් සෙන්සර් එක අල්ලන් ඉන්න බය හිතුනා.

කොහොම හරි කාලයත් එක්ක පුරුදු වෙලා ඒ Shot එකත් ගන්න පුලුවන් උනා.

මේ Photo එක ගන්න Sony එක සහ CameraLK එක එවල තිබුන Sony A7V කැමරාව ගොඩක් ප්‍රයෝජනවත් උනා. A7V එකේ 30fps තිබුනත් මන් තප්පර දෙකකට කලින් වැඩේ පටන් ගත්ත නිසා කැමරාවෙන් SD card එකට යද්දි එකේ Load කරගන්න Speed එක මිලි තප්පර ගානක පරක්කුවක් තිබුන නිසා ඉර මත ගන්න පුලුවන් උනේ Frames 9 ක් විතරයි.

High speed SD Card එකක් use කරන එකේ අගය තේරෙන්නෙ මිලි තප්පර ගණන් වලින් වැඩ කරන්න වෙන මේ වගේ වෙලාවට.

ඉතින් මේක ගන්න වීඩියෝ එක ඉක්මනට දාන්නම්.

Finally, I managed to get that photo.

This is a photograph of the International Space Station passing in front of the Sun. I captured it today from the Wadduwa area. Because the ISS travels at about 28,000 km per hour, it was visible in front of the Sun for only 0.6 seconds, less than one second.

In this photo, the black silhouettes are 9 frames I captured during that 0.6 second transit of the ISS across the Sun. The small black dots around it are sunspots.

I had previously photographed the ISS passing in front of the Moon, but when I tried to capture it in front of the Sun, I missed many chances. Sometimes the weather didn’t cooperate, and other times my photography skills weren’t enough to manage something that happens in less than a second.

Balancing the strong sunlight with the camera sensor is another big challenge. This transit happened at 12:01:31 PM, exactly when the Sun was overhead. Even though I used a filter, I was still worried about exposing the sensor for too long.

Over time, with practice, I was finally able to capture this shot.

The new Sony A7V camera sent by Sony and CameraLK was very helpful for this. Although the A7V can shoot at 30 frames per second, I started shooting about two seconds early. Because of a slight delay while writing data to the SD card, I was able to capture only about 9 frames while the ISS was in front of the Sun.

Moments like this really show the importance of using a high speed SD card, especially when working with milliseconds.

I’ll upload the behind the scenes video of capturing this photo very soon. 🛰️
