Joan, I was looking at the link below. Go to it and scroll down the page and look at the next-to-last paragraph, then the accompanying diagram. That’s the confusion. Dave http://transitofvenus.nl/wp/2012/05/22/finding-first-contact-on-sun/
Dave, I hate to show my ignorance, but is not your photo reversed and inverted from that shown by Joan? I think you are both looking at the same sun. 73, lh On 6/2/2012 1:12 PM, Dave Gary wrote:

Yep, you’re correct, Larry, it is. That’s how they end up when I photograph them through my scope. I leave them that way because I’m too lazy to manipulate them and too stupid to use the photographic software effectively. It takes me too long to figure out what needs to be done so I say the heck with it and move on. The wife says that if she ever saw me look at instructions or a manual for any of my software she’d think I was taken over by a pod. Dave On Jun 2, 2012, at 5:55 PM, Larry Holmes wrote:
