Details:
All stars twinkle and Sirius being the brightest twinkles the most. When the sky is transparent and Sirius is near the horizon, the star's scintillation when seen through a binocular can be dramatic enough to surprise even hardened astronomers!
Details: Handheld EOS 600D with 300mm lens at f/5.6. Single 1.5" second exposure at ISO 800.
