Not bad, drewprops.
The remarkable amateur astronomer
Thierry Legault demonstrated similar skill in photographing not only the transit of Venus, but,
simultaneously,
the transit of the Hubble space telescope. I dread to think what kind of mathematics was needed to figure out where to stand (somewhere in Australia, apparently) and when (the whole thing took less than second).
He used a Nikon D4 shooting at 10 frames per second, which offers a maximum continuous shooting time of just a few seconds, showing the crazy precision needed to pull off this stunt.
