Wonderful picture of Orbit of Venus

Stunning shot here as described in the title, what planning!

Still, could this ever come off in Ireland - I doubt it!
Beautiful all the same:

Keith..

Thats just amazing!!!

Mindlowing photo. What kills me is what kind of jammy sod gets a whole month of clear horizons!!!

Dave,

I have a project in progress for precisely the same thing with Venus precisely 30 minutes before sunrise ... one exposure every ten days and will go into the first week of September when the second retrograde motion finalizes.

I also have something similar with MErcury starting in less than a week thanks to its greatest elongation. This particular project will last exactly one month with exposures every 2-3 days.

Yes, I have the weather for both of these projects and for the complete duration thereof.

Anthony.

PS. Here is a quick peek: www.perseus.gr/Astro-Planet-Ven-2006-Elong.htm ... I started on this project last year but a fatal hard disk crash killed my work in progress (my backup CD containing this work was also bad).

Folr obvious reasons, this page cannot be accessed from any of the website menus since it is work in progress and supposedly is not available.

I was going to say that Anthony probably had something in the works!
