Lovejoy and the ISS (and another view)

Great conditions this morning. Might be my last view for a couple of days according to the forecast. Got a favourable pass of the International Space Station. It was predicted to pass 89 degrees overhead at about 4:30am. I almost forgot about it but luckily spotted it above me while doing another exposure. Ideally I would have liked it to be at a different angle to the comet but beggers can't be choosers so to speak.

Cheers

Greg

Great shots Greg. I wondered if that was the ISS that I caught in a few images too! Your Wagga fly over time you stated is about the same time I saw it but you had a much brighter sky of course being almost 1000km away, or about an hour closer to sunrise! Here's one of my images from another stream showing the ISS.

Thank you very much everyone Storms here this morning. Can't wait for it to clear up so I can get out shooting it again.
Good shots Wayne It certainly looks like you captured the ISS as well.
