Just a few hours after the latest Soyuz launched I got a quick glimpse of 
ISS during a low elevation pass.

The station is 650 km downrange , approx 30 degrees elevation.

(Apologies for using Imagevenue , my ISP (Orange) is acting up again.)

I also imaged UARS a few minutes later.Although it was difficult to make out 
any specific detail , the body of the satellite
looked decidedly copper in colour.
