sample transit images

[bird (Anthony Wesley)]

Hi all, I grabbed a lot of images of the transit from here in Broome, the transit was already in progress at sunrise so I missed the first 45 minutes or so.

Here's a small sample of images, I was using a kendrick white light filter + a 807nm IR filter. The seeing was quite good for the later images.

cheers, Bird

Love them Anthony!!

Very nice views Anthony. I notice in some of your image what I saw today that Venus at times shows some flat spots on its disk. Any idea what causes this? Thanks.

No idea Lester - I'm a total noob at this sort of imaging, maybe someone else will know the answer?

cheers, Bird

Awesome resolution, it looks great. Do you have enough images for an animation?

Wow that's the most close up view I have seen so far..those sun spots look awesome

I really like this series Bird. Nice that the sun threw in a few sunspots for everyone too.

Cheers
