"An amazing picture of ISS, shining in blue of scattered light from the sun that has just set. ISS straight over Paris, shining with its city light. Pure luck I got this pic some hour after sts128 undocked."
Awesome!

These pictures are beautiful, but if the astronauts would learn to turn off the flash, they would not get the flashback against the glass in the windows. There really isn't a reason to use flash at that distance imho but I am not a professional.

They certainly did not use flash. The reflection is from the cabin illumination made more visible by the long exposure, as witnessed by the ground light streaks.
