Transit of Venus
So there I was at 6.30am this morning with bits of card and paper, pens and bent paperclips trying to make a pinhole telescope to view the Venus transit across the Sun. I couldn’t get that to work so I had to wait until the rest of the household woke up so that I could get at my telescope, a 20 year old Tasco 50×40mm telescope, but that didn’t work very well.
In the end I obtained these images using a handheld Minolta Compact 8×23 binocular.
