Transit of Venus

I was lucky enough to watch the transit of Venus for two and a half hours from sunrise till its end from the isle of Rügen (Germany). This is a composite of some of nearly 2.000 pictures I took (which were combined to a video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5OV-s11Z8w&feature=plcp). The main sequence was recorded with a Canon 550D and a Skywatcher 4" Maksutov. The detailed photos were taken with a DMK21 and a Celestron C9.25.
