Mercury Transit - 2
Click image above to view full size
Taken near the very end of the Transit of Mercury this image shows the planet Mercury very close to the edge of the Sun.

Unfortunately this image has relatively few frames used in the stacking so detail is not particularly good.
Camera:Logitech QuickCam Pro 4000
Aperture:80mm
Date:9th November 2006
