Fantastic Tom! I saw it but couldn't get my act together in time to film it.

Thanks for the positive comments,
Paula, I guided manually keeping ISS in the crosshairs with camera furiously snapping away.
I also had the timelapse camera going.

Good stuff. I have on a couple of occasions visually tracked planes and satellites with my equatorial mount but to actually get a photo that is great. That is what astrophotography is all about to me. Capturing something different, unique and without $1000's of equipment and computer guidance and hours of processing. Love it...inspirational
