A rare astronomical event called the Venus Transit of the Sun occurred in June 2012, visible in the Philippines. The planet Venus, appearing as a small dot, is observed to transit or move across the disk of the Sun, imaged with a Sky-Watcher Equinox 100ED, a DSLR camera, and a Baader ND 5.0 solar filter. Venus and a number of sunspots are visible in the photo.
