ISS solar transit

Nailed the ISS transit over Sydney today. (Kudos to CalSky! )

Lovely work Peter!

What was your exposure duration for each frame? You have done an excellent job of stopping the speedy little sucker...

Very tidy and well timed/composed altogether, the sun alone is an excellent rendition, let alone the transition.
