 The passing of Venus.

I rigged the camera on a tripod with my 70-210 nikkor(*1.5 = 315mm). Manual focus. Maximal exposure compensation -5.0 ev. Waited for the right amount of clouds to get the right exposue. As you can see this shot is close to the very limit of the camera/lens f27 1/6000.

This is excellent and without a solar filter.

This is so dramatic and is a lovely image to frame for posterity.
