Venus transit

[Wwabbit]

It's a really nice day here in E TN, I was going for a GT ride, but since Venus is transiting the Sun, I thought that would be fun too. Besides the next time it will occur, I'm scheduled to be out of town.

Some pics;
To get the focal length right, you have to hold the eye piece out from the scope. It focuses beautifully. You can see a few good sunspots too. And there's still time for a nice drive.

That's a great pic! Earth and Venus are about the sime size... trippy.
