ISS pass / Colour Enhanced Moon
I was lucky enough that this was scheduled for me while I was out anyway looking at the conjunction, then lucky again as the only pic I captured was right around the terminator, tycho and the shadows of the nearly full moon.
1/1650s / ISO 800 / f10 / c9.25" 5 exposures stacked in Auto Stakkert + colour enhanced.
Taken from Byron Bay, June 30th.

Yeah sensational, only way you could top that would be to have frozen the ISS in the same frame as Jupiter and Venus...now THAT would be something huh?
Great stuff

Very cool, the ISS looks like it's orbiting the moon. Lots of detail, I keep going back for another look.

This is one of the sharpest ISS lunar transits I've seen, well done!
Personally the colour is putting me off a little though, I prefer the more natural one you posted on IG

Oh goodness I just logged in to see all these comments and IOTW! Thank you so much!
As it was taken on DSLR the resolution is fairly high so the crop factor was quite good. Here is a crop in without the colour enhancement which I like as well
