Venus transit.

Taken at 6:36 EDT on 6/8/2004 from New York City. Taken with a Minolta X700 camera mounted on an Meade ETX125 EC Maksutov-Cassegrain Telescope with a focal length of about 1900mm and f/14 focal ratio on Kodak MAX 400 film. An Orion full-aperture solar filter was used. Original image was underexposed due to low altitude of sun and clouds.
