Description This is one of the images I took using an infrared Canon 60 through an 8" Meade telescope during the Venus transit event of 2012. The appearance is due to a combination of a slight cloud cover and looking through trees just as I lost the sun behind them. I thought the result was actually quite beautiful.

You don't have to thank me. I was just speaking the truth - it did, quite literally, take my breath away.

You capture beauty in everything, in such a way few people can. <3
