ISS rising tonight

[cookie8 (Vincent)]

After many days of poor weather I felt any imaging is better than none.
ISS not at its brightest at only mag -1.4 but it was rising at a shallow angle between Venus & Jupiter. I think my neighbour's palm trees gave it mre scale.

nice image cookie

I saw it this evening after 8.30 pass over Newcastle through the cloud - it was indeed an impressive sight. it was as bright or brighter than Venus, and definitely brighter than Jupiter going from SW to NE. visually i thought i could even make out the solar array structure shining bright in a different position to the main body. (could have been dreaming ).

it would have made for a brilliant sight through binos - or even imaged?

Lovely image Vincent. I love the framing with the Palm trees.

Well done.

I agree, a great image Vincent, the trees add to the photo and I really like the colours.

Very nice.

Very cool Vincent I, too, like the colours - and I half expect the palm trees to fold down and make way for Thunderbird 2

Thanks guys for your nice comments. Glad that you like it. My neighbour's backyard lighting not always a nuisance for a change.
