Pictures

Last weekend Rik came to visit me, amongst the things we did, we went out to show him one of my little hobbies, taking pictures of things at night with long exposures. Especially trying to take pictures of things whizzing around the Earth at high speed, like the Iridium Flares that I caught not so long ago.

So, here's the batch we took that night, including one nice shot of the ISS flyover. The wonderful thing is that I caught the ISS when I was actually aiming for a piece of Russian space junk, which I missed due to a small amount of ineptitude, so I left the shutter open for the ISS flyover :)
