Equipment:

10 inches skywatcher dobsonian f4.8 which was mounted on an AZ-EQ 6 GT, CMOS sensor: ZWO ASI 178mm cooled with a peltier module and water circulation. unbranded Chinese white light filter (it seems that they have used Baader Astrosolar film)

Description:

The ISS orbits planet earth, sometimes it passes in front of the sun or the moon, you just have to know when and where to look for it. i was very found of great sunspot AR2673, so i thought it is a good idea to capture an image when ISS is going to visit this sunspot, then i drove around 100 kilometers to arrive at my destination near Persepolis and set up my equipment.
