Nice one Matt.

If you haven't seen the NASA ultra hi-def video compilation of the transit...it's very cool too:

my attempt of the Venus transit in June in Capitol Reef NP.
Due to a wildfire the sun appeared so red and some of the smoke clouds are visible in the pictures.
But the smoke also helped and I used only one filter.
All shots are handheld due to 60+mph wind gusts that day


beginning of the transit



smoke and Venus transit


Venus transit early evening


a day earlier there was a partially lunar eclipse which I also tried to capture

Nice shots, Yvonne...
I think the wildfire red added to the images.
Also like the partial lunar eclipse...awesome to see that shadow creep over the moon.

Great stuff!

Nice one! Is that an airplane trail? How long was your exposure? Love the way she's lit up ...and watching the sky.

Pretty cool Matt! How long of an exposure was that or is it stacked?
