Well the 20 knot winds that were howling on the night of the triple transit have settled down and gave way to some decent seeing last night so i was able to get some images of the double transit. I also have a sketch that makes for an interesting comparison but no scanner to post it. C8 @ F20, Toucam Pro, Seeing P5 to P6

Vincent,

Thank you for posting this excellent image of the double transit event. The satellites and their shadows are very interesting. I look forward to your future images.
