The Transit of Venus (which you should most definitely not try and look at directly if you value being able to see) is continuing until 14:44 this afternoon.
Ozhair has sent in the above picture with this note:
Just took a crack at a Venus transit pic, which I’ve attached. Details for the photo buffs are:
Transit of Venus, from the roof of Parliament House.
Canon 7D, 300mm lens, 1000th of a sec, f14, with a Fader ND filter turned up to maximum (And RAW image zoomed and cropped in Photoshop)
Smee has also sent this one in and explains its provenance:
Here is a pic shot on my iPhone this morning through the eyepiece of a 32cm telescope that some ANU students had setup on Childers st.
This one’s from Snoopydoc:
Taken from my front yard in Duffy, with a Canon 450D and an 8-inch SCT
telescope.
