The International Space Station and the Shuttle against a backdrop of the Sun

This is a cool set of photos. Thierry Legault shot some awesome photos that have appeared on CNN, Bad Astronomy and The Next Net, to name three services.  Take a look at the following image of the Sun.  Do you see the dots against the backdrop of the Sun:

Now take a look at this image:

The dot on the right is the International Space Station and the one on the left is the Space Shuttle.  How cool is that?
