Transit of Mercury - 11th November

[Rick]

I wasn't able to combine clear skies and access to my scope well enough to see anything, unfortunately.  Glad someone got a photo! Well done!

The Register mentions the transit here:

I spent most of last night do observing despite the virtually full moon, but just for a laugh I tried the same trick as I used earlier with the Panasonic poked inside the eye cup of and eye piece to take a picture of M42. Suffice it to say it wasn't very successful....

There is just a few more photons from the sun than M42 ,a great transit image though ,

I was scuppered by one of next doors enormous pine trees which was right in the way of first contact. then the clouds rolled in   2032?
