"Hello to Venus."

Should we all get some really got hot lovin' tonight because of this?

Like serious rabbit spasms?

I made a pinhole sheet, too, but I think I needed a lens of some sort. The sun was too small to really make venus out. I did see "something", but I can't be sure.

too cloudy to see it in brisbane 🙁 not to worry
the next one in 2012 gets all 4 contact points (in other words, we get to see the lot without the sun going down!)

and if its cloudy again in 8 years time im going to be severly pissed.

i didn't manage to get a photo because i had invigilating to do..so that sucked
but yes..we could see it, and it only happens over here every 100yrs or something hahahahahaha
