Last night i was testing my modded camera with lpr filter. after 4 min exposure unusual object created at the corner of the image like satellite or shooting star trail, i am not surprised by this trail, the unusual things is that it created 8 dots star one the line with same interval. the sky was cloudy.
no modifications were done other then resized and darkness. Thanks.

Most likely a rotating or tumbling satellite. When the solar panels are face on to you, it becomes momentarily much brighter. Check heavens above for satellite tracks in your area at that time.

Or a blinking aircraft. I ever saw some blink twice and then repeat moments later, probably due to the navigation lights.

Hi,
It's cause by the aircraft navigation lights... I got some photo with similar lines and dots in the image when I saw the aircraft fly across where my camera point at during the exposure.

Have a nice day.
