Mercury Transit GIF

[Lowjiber]

ADMINISTRATORS... PLEASE PUT THIS WHERE IT BELONGS, AS I HAVE NO IDEA. :Think:

I've done a few animated GIFs before, but a duck flying across the sun is much more simple than trying to use different "snapshots" taken at different times. While my mount tracks rock-solid, the seven snapshots in this GIF were very hard to crop correctly... thus the "bouncing around".

Anyhoo... Have a little fun at my expense... no problem.

(Left-click the thumbnail to make it go.)

Thanks for the peek. Clear Skies

very nice, thanks for the gif!

Very nice! It is difficult to line up the images on a sequence like this.

The next transit is in 2032. I'm 72 now and doubt I'll be around, but I'm gonna be ready.

Looks great John!

That's really cool (or hot depending on which is appropriate!)

I have a bunch that I took and thought about doing something like what you did, but time keeps getting away from me! Maybe a good rainy day project.

[XCalRocketMan]

Very nice. I still haven't processed my images yet.

Pretty darn cool, John!

You'll only be 85 in 2032. You got this. You'll probably be meaner than a rattlesnake by then. Just let me know if you need any help setting up. I'll come running.
