I'd planned to photograph the event like many others too....but actually I did end up taking a few shots, here's the best of them : Link

Not happy Jan
sorry to hear that andrew, you fell victim to the crap just like me, but it seems the entire SE / E coast fell victim to crap this evening. I;'m sure there will be a few more titan transits this edge-on apparition, which will be visible to even the coast suffering from our devestating climate. I'm not prepared to wait another 15 years to witness these rare events

I hate melbourne's weather like hell, but basically the entire east coast was crap this evening.

I am now so drunk that I feel like throwing up.
