International Space Station over Northern California by Ted Judah
The ISS came from the north-west and passed 81 degrees above the horizon on this night. It was 364 km above me when I took this image (Actually a stack of 4 images.) through my new C-11.
Visible are a Progress spacecraft docked to the Swesda module, S and P radiators, Columbus and JEM modules.
I have to give thanks to Frank Brandl for his advice and encouragement. I could not have captured this image without his help.

Great shot considering the location in Northern California. Can only imagine the resolution if taken out on the Colorado Plateau. |

No sophisticated tracking. I tracked manually and fired off shots when it was in the cross-hairs. |

Great photo!!
I was wondering if you were just using the t ring with t adaptor and NO tele extender or eyepiece...
Or did you have an eyepiece and tele extender set up to? |

Great shot!
I recall seeing details on Skylab, Salyut and Mir with manually slewed scopes. |
