First (successful) attempt at photographing the International Space Statio This was shot on the evening of June 21 as the station was passing over Central Florida, sorta. Camera was a Canon EOS 1DC with the Canon 800mm f/5.6 telephoto with a 2X tele extender, in 4K video mode. The pass was not an overhead pass, so the station was not as close it could be, closest approach was about 450 miles (it was actually over Myrtle Beach, SC). A direct overhead pass would almost cut that distance in half, doubling the the apparent size of the station.----Cinematographer James Neihouse
