ISS pass while videoing lightning storm

[melsky]

Out last night for a marathon session with my Chipping Norton astro buddies, Jupiter, comet C/2015 V2 Johnson and the supernova in NGC6946 the fireworks galaxy all bagged when we noticed a few random flashes to the south. The predicted electrical storm was approaching, this video was shot two hours later and luckily also caught the last of four ISS passes of the night, it comes in top right after 33 seconds.

Thats a decent capture.
I re-collimated the scope today and have been waiting for a clear gap in the skies, but its raining now 0157 BST.
I was aware of the ISS  passing at about 2347ish, but again, too cloudy to see anything

The Electrical Storm was fascinating enough, but the ISS pass was a great bonus.
Never seen Lightning discharging with such frequency, there must have been tremendous
energy pent up in that event.
Great Video Melsky, I enjoyed it.
