This was a beautiful pass at 06:09UT this morning. At highest it reached about 47 degrees. The sky was amazing even with the onset of dawn, the stars were still visible to a very low altitude. The ISS itself took on a lovely golden colour at it's brightest but as it crossed over into the east it faded slightly as it entered the dawn sky. A beautiful pass! These are all 18mm and 30 seconds ISO1600.

I agree with Steven John, that's a cracking set of ISS images you took. They are all the more impressive because they are pre dawn passes. Not very many images of the station at that time of the morning going around!. Lovely.
