There are a lot, and I do mean a lot, of gorgeous images from yesteday’s transit of Venus flying about the internet right now. I have no doubt more will surface gradually, as images are downloaded from cameras and retouched, and data is reduced. In the meantime though, these are my favourites of all the images I’ve seen so far!
