If you guys missed it, today the planet Venus passed between the Earth and Sun. This was the last such transit until 2117.

The clarity isn't the best because I had to hold my camera up to my binoculars to take the photos. The view with my own eyes was spectacular!

Very cool :)

There was a complete overcast here, so not much to see.
