Mercury Transit in Brazil

[astroavani]

A modest capture made in a very difficult situation.
There were about 20 films, most of them lost due to the gusts of wind that moved the planet out of the capture screen, in addition to many clouds passing which made light control a real adventure. After all, one is better than nothing, at least I managed to register this rare event because the next, I do not know if I will still be here.

Fewer surface details than your usual planetary shots, Avani! 😉

Amazing!

[Ceramus]

Well done, fantastico!

Good capture. Tough conditions for a lot of people I think.

Lovely close up capture

[Ruud]

That's the best image I've seen yet (excluding NASA). It is fantastic! 

I saw nothing of the transit myself. We had clouds and rain all day.

I am sad that you missed this rare opportunity friend Ruud!
I made more than 20 films, only this one was saved, mostly the gusts of wind threw the planet off the capture screen.

Surpreendente!

And only a Baader solar leaf with a Green filter was used, I didn't expect so many details myself. But what I liked was that the planet was very well defined.

Not alone, had blowing snow, sun came out hour after transit. Is a terrific image, especially with the conditions you faced.

My Friend ..., the wind was coming in gusts so strong that most of the movies were lost because the planet simply left the capture area.
