The transit as seen in Hydrogen Alpha Light. Two frames from a video using a Lunt Solar Systems LS60T H-aplha telescope and a DMK41AU02.AS camera - One frame showing the prominences and one showing the chromosphere.
A video of the Sun setting behind the McMath Solar Telescope. I computed the position on the Earth where this event would take place in order to record this completely unique event. As you can see - I got my shot.
Tthe setup at home. We observed the first part of the transit from the backyard where I had setup two telescopes to record the transit beginning. The equipment is described here.
The setup at the location I computed for the sunset behind the McMath Solar Telescope.
