Description
Venus can be seen as a small dot on the upper right segment of the sun which was partially obscured by some clouds. I'm putting this up just for fun because it's a rare occurrence and to prove you don't need special equipment to take these shots. I took this with a Sony Cybershot 14Mp and I used my sunglasses as a filter over the lens while the clouds were coming by and I set the camera to the lowest exposure and lowest ISO sensitivity. I then cropped the image and enhanced the contrast in Picasa.
