Thanks for all the great images. It was too cloudy for any imaging where I am in France but I saw some of the live feeds that were available on the web. After the event, I found myself wondering if anyone had created a site where several live feeds from around the world were simultaneously presented - a sort of dashboard of feeds. That would allow you to look at any that were not currently clouded over and might also allow you to see and compare parallax effects from different points of the compass, especially at Contact. It would be beyond my capabilities to do this but might involve an adaptation of videoconferencing technology. Has it been done for transits or eclipses anywhere?

Just discovered this excellent resource, thanks! Intriguing the remarks about doing sketching. I do sketches of landscapes here on earth and it is very true that it helps you to see more, but I hadn't extended that thinking to astronomy. Anyway, I am a beginning astrophotographer. I attach an image of my work in progress for this year, tracking the approach of Mars to opposition. I have tried to get the images to scale. (Done with 8SE and Neximage 5 plus 2X Barlow; except for 19 Mar with ZWO120MM plus 2X Barlow). Hope I get clear nights in early June!
