Palm Cove Beach, Cairns, Queensland, Australia

Celeston 15×70 binoculars projecting on a white card. Pictures taken with a Canon 400D and a 55mm lens.

Pictures formed into a single composite using GIMP.

Using the GIMP software I have joined up 4 seperate pictures of the transit of Venus taken at 2:12, 3:09, 3:57 and 4:20 am BST. I used the sun spots to try and align the images.
