The Transit of Venus isn't the only thing happening during June.
On the 4th June, there's a partial lunar eclipse in a great position to view and photograph for Australians and New Zealanders, as it will be visible high in the sky during the evening.
It's not an overly deep eclipse but still work checking out.
Lunar Eclipses are completely safe to observe without any special equipment or filters.
Here's the article with all the info you need to see it and photograph it.
