Mercury Transits the Sun from Pittsburgh, PA. 2003/5/7.
Mercury is marked by the arrow and was about to exit the surface of the sun.
The big black dot at the center is a sunspot.
I may be one of the people closest to the western event line to successfully photo the transit in the world. See
the 2003 mercury transit page
for more photos.
