  Eclipse photo from last October. It was only partial here in North America. Forgive me for taking it with a Canon—it's what was mounted on my department's telescope at the time.

  The planes at Love Field in Dallas, TX, come in for landing over Bachman Lake and Park at the north end of the runway. My first go at this. Even though my shutter speed was fairly high, I discovered that a lack of accurate panning speed can screw up a lot of photos.

  One more in B&W from this fellow.
  Strobist info: SB-910 with Gary Fong light sphere as a kicker light about 10 feet behind subject to create separation from background. The light was mounted on a monopod which was gaff taped to the banister.
  Triggered by Phottix Odin.

  @jonnyapple
  
  The technical data on the scope, inch, effective f/stop, and exposure time......and, love your eclipse shot....also, was this taken with a Thousand Oaks Filter over the front element of the scope?

  @msmoto, it's an 11" reflector. Based on field of view (appx. 0.4° × 0.6°) I'd estimate that makes it about a 2200 mm (88") f/8 lens. At that focal length on a crop sensor I stitched five images together to make this final one. Exposure was 1/640 s, and sensitivity ISO 640, which might seem stupid given how much light the sun puts out but I was shooting through a haze and the image was moving around quite a bit.
  
  I did have a solar filter on it, which is something like a 16-stop neutral density filter. As an aside, I almost blinded myself with this scope taking photos during the transit of Venus. I had on my solar glasses watching the transit and the solar filter was on the telescope. Like a fool, I went to look through the smaller finder scope to get the thing pointed toward the sun. I saw a flash of light and instinctively pulled my face away, but the sun had burnt through the solar glasses and was just about to get started on my retina—ant and magnifying glass style!
