I think it was the same orbit, Steve, it's just that you are further East of us, and by the time the ISS crossed over, it was getting too bright where you were (so you were packing up). mtbdudex wrote in post #13593427 Very nice Rudi, when you see the Comet with your naked eye how did the tail appear? Could you see it visually or was it to faint and only long exposure will pull it out? Easy naked eye object. It looked like a giant searchlight, somewhere in the distance over the ocean. • Wedding Photographer - Sydney and Wollongong
