I managed to capture an image of the double transit as well. I wasn't planning to shoot it, but heck...had the scope set up and it's only 3-5 minutes from setup to imaging, so what the heck. Seeing wasn't very good, but as Tom Davis said, it's worth it just to capture it. As you can see, the seeing didn't improve much later either...oh well.

Paul, it was cloudy here, got no chance on viewing/imaging it, but glad you did...

I sure hope things will be better this weekend, the BIG ONE is coming!
