This is my first real attempt at a layered, composite shot. it is a combination of the ISS pass shot I posted earlier, and the same scene shot minutes before the pass at F.5, ISO 3200 and 15 sec exposure. Some adjustments made in LR, then exported to PS and Auto-merged layers. Some tidying work done after in LR. So much to learn about PS....

Now that is a great shot.

Thank you. I find the technical challenges very interesting. There is a pass tonight here which can have the crescent moon and Jupiter in shot, close together. I intend to try a composite shot of that too, because the moon will just be a bright blur otherwise, on a 2min 30 sec exposure. And the composite shots are certainly extending my meagre PS skills--normally I only use PS for pano stitches and the occasional bit of clone stamp, preferring LR for general use.
