ISS pass over Portugal was created by Frank Ryan
At 5am on Friday the 18th it was getting bright fast!
I decided to head off to the beach to catch an ISS pass.
There was other people on the beach at that hour too but
I'd say astrophotgraphy was the last thing on thier minds!!
They got some fright when they almost bumped into me on the
way back to the hotel!!
There was some light pollution from the Hotel on the cliff but
at least it lit the scene for me,
A handheld torch light the waves for me so as to get a feel for the moment.
I just managed to capture Uranus on the outskirts of Aquarius.

A very scenic shot there Frank, good capture on the planet.
If only that couple knew you had a high power scope and camera, you might have got a different reaction. :lol:
