Unbelievable - ISS + Shuttle: handguided!

[deanm (Dean)]

There are a few other pics of Shuttle, ISS and the Shuttle + ISS together taken from the ground.

But this almost defies belief!

"I captured this.....image of these two spaceships traveling as separate craft using Canon EOS 40D using eyepiece projection through a hand guided 8.5 inch Newton."

Brilliant image indeed, and as said probably never to be seen again, well done.

Super! My colleagues at work find these images unbeilable - great capture.
I have been enjoying the ISS and shuttle images - there are a lot of great imagers out there!

Hi Dean,

Remarkable indeed. Particular where Bullen says that it was using eyepiece projection
and hand guided!

Just a tad more more resolution and you could probably make out the
"If you can't see my mirrors then I can't see you" sticker on the back of the Shuttle.

Amazing.
It would have taken all his skills to do that. Then just throw in a great dollop of luck.

Right spot, right time and as JJJ said "a great dollop of luck"

Definitely to be congratulated for a great shot.
