Hi,

This is my first attempt at imaging the Space Station,
the solar panels show up well but the main body
could be better , for my first attempt I'm satisfied .

Hand guided 14.5 Starmaster , Toucam Pro at prime focus
image enlarged 3x

Thanks,

Wes Higgins

spectacular image, Wes!

It looks really 3-dimansional.
I never thought to teach my mount such tracking,

must be nice to see the video in real time, guess you took a lot of frames,

Wes,

Make sure you give it a try next time there is a scheduled space walk.

Keep up the great work.

Just when I think I am catching up to you, you go and raise the bar 5 more notches! Out standing image Wes. My question is, what did you focus on before the fly by?
