The ISS (I think)

A photograph of the ISS.

From Astronomy Stills
This streak I believe is the ISS (international Space Station)
Image taken 13/07/09 0005 (BST (GMT+1) camera time not set perfectly)
Camera aimed SE pointing approx 45 to 60 degress upwards (I know I didnt really look closely at this)

The way I tracked this is using Heavens Above (Here).
The details are as follows
Magnitude -3.4
Time above horizon: 2302-2307 (GMT)
Location: Longden ( 52.6521°N, 2.8252°W)

If anyone else has other ideas of the unidentified object feel free to comment.
