After the spectacular celestial fireworks of the Perigee Moon and the Ring of Fire eclipse, I confess I was spoiled. When I researched the transit of Venus, I realized that it might be a letdown after all the hype.
Ooops! Sensationalist media did us in again! There it was, like a mouse crawling across a hockey rink.
I took a number of shots, and then decided that if it didn't come again until 2117 it was fine with me.
I'll stick with the spectacular stuff--This kind of image is worth all it takes to get it!!
And I'll surely hope that I'm still around for the next Ring of Fire!!
That really was a spectacular month, though!!
