A fun post with the images shot on the Zuiko FT 150mm F4, or officially the E.Zuiko Auto-T 150mm F4 lens. I had the lens mounted on the Olympus E-P5, and instead of using a tripod, decided to do a handheld capture of a bright light point, which is actually a stationary satellite reflecting the light from the still-hidden sun as the morning was drawing nearer.

The wavering light was made by the movement of the camera, as the shutter speed for these shots was between 2.5 to 6 seconds. You might be able to guess, from the third shot, that the sky above my location was also the airspace and flight path for airplanes arriving and departing from a nearby airport.

The fourth frame shot is not actually of the satellite or a plane passing, but of a safety beacon on a power pylon across the horizon.
