    Venus Transit Photo

    Here's a photo of this morning's transit of Venus as viewed from my location outside Washington DC. I was feeling pretty crummy (flu) so I just set up the scope in the living room! We had light overcast here, but it broke up for a bit and I managed to get a couple of shots. Equipment: -...
