Not a planetary transit

I had hoped to get a photo of the transit of Venus in front of the Sun today, but the sun was in short supply today in Vancouver.

As it set, there looked as though there might just be a chance it would peek through a gap in the clouds, so I headed over to Vanier Park to see if it would.

Sadly for me and the handful of other optimistic photographers and astronomers there, the sun failed to make an appearance. So instead, here's a shot of some various forms of water transportation, taken with my secondary camera.

Love the colours of the sky. We didnt get the opportunity to see it either...completely covered in cloud and bitterly cold.

Fabulous photo of this seascape :)

No luck here either. This is a beautiful seascape!!

Lovely tones in the sky. Love the tags. :)

@humphreyhippo I was inspired by the one on your self-portrait ;)

@abirkill LOL! :)

What a disapointment. I didn't even bother the cloud cover was so thick here. This is a good sub though.

Bummer about all the clouds that day! But this shot is nothing to sneeze at. Very pleasant sunset ocean scene. Better luck in 2117. :)

Beautifully composed shot!
