ISS intersecting Mars was created by Frank Ryan
..well..transits I guess....
Albert and Mikes posts about the transit software jolted my memory
about a shot I took last month.
(it was nearly my last as there was a 'Frank Spencer' moment
involving me being chased by a bull in the dark and vaulting over an electric fence
into hawthorns, camera & kit in tow.)
Anyway bruised but not beaten I barely had enough time to
set up the shot again.
Saturday 5th April 2008. 925pm ISS pass intersecting Mars over Shannon.
Canon 350D
Tokina AF 12-24mm f/4 AT-X Pro DX
Can't remember the app / iso / time.
I just guessed it coz I was in a rush.

The ISS is fleeing from the bull's horns in......Taurus.

Anybody who says that Earthshine is reflected Sunshine is talking Moonshine.
