To the TS,
It is only proper to give credit and mentioned the photographer Thierry Legault who submitted the image, on SpaceWeather.com (17 Sep 2006), in the very first post where the image appears.
As it is, it gives the impression that the image was taken by you, it is only through reading the rest of the post that one realized it is not.
Generally, the ISS is nothing natural except the sun and unfortunately there is no astrophotography from in CS, hence this thread will at the moment be allowed to remain here.
The forum main page has specified the images that belongs to the World of Nature:
"World of Nature
Images of animals taken in the wild, in captivity or of pets in your home."
