Al-Paslow > Despite the bad weather Paul Campbell of Washington, PA got this image from work in Bridgeville, PA. He writes:

"Hi; here is a photo of the transit taken right around 3:00pm est. my time.  I took my scope to work and set up about 1:30pm, it was raining.  At 2:45 I said a little prayer and at 3:00 the Sun came out for about 15:00 min.  I got off 5 photos of which 1 was good enough to post. 
 
  This photo was taken using a Meade 60mm telescope/350mm lens on a ds goto mount. The eyepiece I used was a meade  9.5mm lens mounted to a sony cybershot camera. The photo was taken in auto night mode using a solar filter   I'm not sure but I think the sunspot above Mercury is 921."
