Went out to capture a satellite pass with a super high elevation (87°). Found an abandoned golf course in the process of being repurposed with a relatively clear skyline. The skies were mostly clear with some cirrus clouds toning down the sunlight. It was a crisp 10°C at 10AM, which seems a bit unexpected for someone not from Florida. Just at the satellite was at it's highest point, an airplane left a contrail, as if to mark the spot.
