We watched it!

This is my hubby looking through my telescope. The solar filter is in place!



This is just as Venus was starting to show its self!



And this is the last one i was able to get before My Hubby made me come inside to finish dinner! LOL



This one is really cool! Sorry its off center,but its just a little darker. You can see Venus and you can also see the sun spots better!

Cheymat...
Is the base on your scope wood or metal? Nice set up

I am waiting for the government to have a yard sale and sell me the scope on Palomar.

Thank you! Its wood. I bought mine about 8 years ago when we lived in Alaska. I got it online from Orion Telescopes.

I wanted to see this but the clouds rolled in from the North and kept the skies grey all evening. Did manage to see a picture of it on the news from someone a bit further South where the cloud cover was a bit less.
