Amateur Astronomer Thierry Legault took these mind blowing and humbling pictures of Hubble and Atlantis. The setup included Takahashi TOA-130 refractor (diameter 130mm, final focal 2200mm), Baader solar prism and Canon 5D mark II. Exposure of 1/8000s at 100 ISO, extracted from a series of 16 images (4 images/s) started 2s before the predicted time. Check out the website here
