Mercury

February 11th, 2014
Did anybody get a chance to see Mercury last weekend? I saw this article (which I could have sworn was posted here at 365, but I may be wrong), and jumped at the opportunity.

My lens only goes to 300mm, so I couldn't see more than a reddish-orange speck, but it was SO cool to know I was looking at Mercury.

Here's my outcome, which I was pretty pleased with.



Anybody else capture the tiny planet? If so, post it here so I can see! :-)
