Thanks to Rick Lipscomb for these images… he writes:

“Mr Spann
I was able to capture the ISS flying over Southwest Georgia this evening. She appeared out of the southwest slowly growing brighter, passed directly over head and continued to the northeast until she lost the suns reflection and faded away..It awesome to see this for the first time. I was even fortunate enough to have the station pass close enough to Venus to capture both in the same shot!”
