International Space Station Flyover

I subscribe to spaceweather.com and they have all the info about satellites and
what time and date each will fly over your zip code. Last night, the International
Space Station was scheduled to fly over my house at 9:51 p.m. local time.
We had clear skies so I thought I'd try to get a photo of it going overhead. It sort of
looks like a short star trail in this 30 second exposure. The structure in the lower
right corner of the image is the roof of my neighbor's house.

Here's another view with the space station directly overhead.
