Dan,
A beautiful picture. Thank you for sharing. I'm going to try to take some time off from work tomorrow to go to the Carnegie Science Center in Pittsburgh to see the Mercury transit. Your picture brings out the perspective of how much is between us and the sun. It's amazing. Also, how large the sun is, with an entire planet dwarfed to a dot.

Enjoy the heavens,
Lawrence
