I just managed to catch a few shots.. didn't get the full thing though...
still, its nice to see the crescent moon and then to see how much brighter
Venus is next to it.

Dear Friends .... and Seanie,

I have enough material to keep me busy (and out of trouble) at least until tomorrow.

Here are some quick results ...

(1) www.perseus.gr/Astro-Lunar-Occult-2007-06-18.htm
(2) www.perseus.gr/Astro-Lunar-Occult-2007-06-18b.htm
(3) www.perseus.gr/Astro-Lunar-Occult-2007-06-18c.htm

I have a lot of photos spaced five minutes apart before and after the occultation and which I hope to compose into a nice time series.

Anto - forgive me for asking - any chance you could try and get some better contrast or at least reduce the sky background a tad?

They're lovely images but all that brightness is giving me a headache :D

Looking forward to the video.

Dave

Great images Anthony, it was daytime so the sky should be blue, a true representation of what was visible IMHO, its good to see someone saw it.
