ISS pass this morning 4 2 2017

Had finished up my jupiter session this morning and realized the space station was due past in 5 minutes time. So i hurriedly put my scope on the dob mount for easier hand tracking, did a quick focus using jupiters moons and swung the scope to the north west in time to see the ISS rising. Luckily I had my ISS camera settings saved from previous attempts so loaded them in sharpcap with a couple of clicks. so happy with the end result. I use PIPP to process the .ser video. It has a great ISS setting that works a treat!
This image has been scaled up to double the original size and some light sharpening applied with gimp.

cheers
