A few photos of the ISS pass tonight. Taken with the Oly C5060WZ. 15 sec, 200ASA, f/8.

The first shows the ISS passing Procyon (bottom half of Orion in the top LHS of frame).

The second and third shots were hastily framed and taken as it disappeared to the east.

Nothing like a flare that I noticed. It was bright as expected though.

I've noticed that on occasions, it flares considerably, I've seen it do so twice, in both cases the pass has started to the south west and not too long after sunset.
