Comments: Never mind the trolls...

And just in case anyone's interested, the ISS is over early again tonight... and, if it's not cloudy, should be bright, as the sun will still be near enough to reflect well off its panels:

Details for the E/SE (it will be lower in the sky and maybe a minute later further north):

Are spammers the reason why I cannot leave comments on the post below?

Just wanted to comment on the photos of the ghost deer. Well done, most ghost pix are never as clear as the ones you took. Must be the camera.

LaP - yes, sorry. What is a ghost deer? Is this something I should know about?

Making a joke about your photos. The deer look phosphorous just like the hound of the Baskervilles.

(My auto correct tried to change Baskervilles to Basketballs. WTH?)

That'll be this one then...

On a semi related note, I originally posted that image back in the 90's, when I built my first website designed for fast loading on 2400 modems. Amongst other miscellanea I added a page about Simon Drew, in a flippant comment I headed the page "What is this guy on?" He got in touch and was annoyed, not about the copyright violation but the insinuation that he took drugs. I was pleased to apologise and make the appropriate amendment.

Lovely link Ham! Nice to see you again.

LaP - I Googled 'ghost deer' and they do exist - albino deer, which must be why the pale one is so pale. S/he is very rare apparently!
