My first Iridium Flare

Or rather, not the first one I see, but the first one I photograph. I got this picture of an Iridium Flare just a few minutes ago. The picture itself is not very exciting perhaps, but the flare was quite bright. The exposure time was around 30 seconds. The flare was visible around 5 seconds, which means that the the light from the surrounding stars was captured by the camera around 6 times as long time. Still the flare appears so much brighter...
