At the last minute I decieded I wanted to see the transit. I went to 3 stores looking for the proper glasses with no luck. Finally, I looked up if it was okay to view through your camera LCD screen. It was okay for your eyes but could damage the camera's image sensor. I deceided I would give it a try. While at work it did not look good with lots of cloud cover and several work requests that keep me at work longer than expected. I was mad and thought I might not make it home. I got there just in time but the clouds were still there. I was about to give up when my mother yelled, THE SUN ther it is! I ran out side got my camera and I could not see a thing through the LCD screen, it was too bright. Then the clouds came back and I was able to see the Sun through a nature filter. I tool a couple of pictures not sure if Venus was in the shot or not. Below are the pictures I was able to get. No glasses, filter, or special lense!
Thanks to some cloud cover I was able to see the Transit of Venus!
