ISS-- October 10th new
      #2692275 - 10/11/08 01:55 AM Attachment (25 downloads)

It's been a while since I had a chance to catch the ISS. This was on a fifty seven degree pass this evening. I didn't grab as much detail as I would like, I only managed a few frames when it was at it's highest point. Still I'm happy to catch a glimpse of it one more time.

Thanks for looking.

Very nice. There were some clouds here so I didnt get the chance. Did you guide it by hand?

Not sure what you mean Freddy. If you mean magnify, I guess you could use a barlow. I have thought about trying it one day.
