Tom Laskowski, of South Bend, set up his 6 inch reflector telescope with a prosumer-quality Canon C4000Z digital camera. He had figured out that the April 11 overflight path of the ISS would take it across the face of the Moon.

Laskowski captured a photo of the Space Station transiting the face of the Moon.
