The particulars of that Transit of Venus w/ airplane shot

It was a Canon Rebel T2i, with a Kenko (35mm type) 420mm - 800mm

zoom lens, with a Baadar solar film filter: since it was at a high shutter

speed I think fast at 1/4000th (and 100 ISO) I only used a tripod instead of

tracking mount. And I was just lucky.

Now all we need are some good comets, like Hale-Bopp was in the 90's.

Thank you.
