Description

I shot a large series of frames of Venus as it passed the edge of the sun in an attempt to get an image of the Rainboow of fire caused by its atmosphere. This is a stack aligned on Venus itself. Strangely enough, it appears there is more of a sign of Venuss atmosphere in blue than there is in red, though it seems to show an edge. C5 telescope, Baader film, and Canon S330
