There is a guy in the Philippines named Romy Ocon who posts on other forums relatively frequently. His specialty is bird photography, but he does something like this every so often.

He has done this kind of thing before when photographing the moon. It is amazing to me that a) those photos are hand-held, and b) that he has that many TCs.

Edited to add: Here is a link to one of his moon shots using a 7D, 400 f/2.8L and two 2x TCs.
