ISS and docked Shuttle

Does anyone have the capability to photograph the ISS and Shuttle docked together?
I would love to see that.
The NASA "sightings" site has both ISS and Shuttle on the list. Next thursday morning seems to be the best day, but it doesn't say if they are still docked.

By watching the "Orbital Tracking" site, they should be docking sometime today.

the 9/10th July, STS-121 is right over tassie according to heavens above, but ISS will be about 1 hr before it, so they must undock before then.

THere is a great shot of both taken by an earth based scope, can't remember where i saw it?
