The capture was indeed over in a fraction of a second. That gif animation is a slow motion because it pauses 0.01s between frames as a minimum.

It's nerve wracking watching the ISS, thinking it will miss too. My spotter said it appeared to be a bullseye transit with the naked eye, but the capture said otherwise. I'm grateful that I was within the vicinity for the ISS to be within the frame. So many variables in play for this to go sideways (pun intended).
