When you try your best, but you don't succeeed... Thanks @Thom_astro For the pic! Looks like @RGVaerialphotos has a competition. For those more knowledgable in photography than me, what kind of lens would you need to shoot RGV-quality level pics from ISS? Tweet added by Boca Bingo @BingoBoca

@BingoBoca @RGVaerialphotos @Thom_astro I don't think you're gonna get even close with a "regular" lens. You'll need to go into actual big telescope territory (thousands of millimeters FL, very high focal ratio) to be able to reach that kind of resolution / resolving power from 400 km away. Plus a 5X focal extender.

@BingoBoca @RGVaerialphotos @Thom_astro Even with a long enough lens to get the resolution, clarity would likely never be as good due to atmospheric conditions.
