Thanks Dennis and Matt.

Yes,it was so good the weather worked out well for S.E QLD members,it was great to share the gear and show members of the public-and keep the day an enjoyable event,without getting too serious.

I found the interest in yesterday's transit,much stronger than 2004,great to see general public so interested in an astronomical event.

We were able to see the whole transit from beginning to end,I managed to get images all through the event,I think I liked when Venus was just inside the sun disc the best.

Thanks too Dennis for the instructions on solar viewing and getting gear ready
