Venus transit.

Photo taken with a Carl Zeiss 500mm f/8 Tele-Tessar lens on a Hasselblad 503CW camera mounted on a tripod using Kodak Ektachrome E200 film with an exposure of 1/30 second and at full aperture just after sunrise on June 8, 2004 at 5:47 AM in New York City, NY. The early morning clouds had me worried that I would miss the transit. This is the full frame of the transparency, so one can see how little of the film the other Hasselblad transit exposure really represents.
