Hey, at least you got to see it. No such luck for us North Americans.
Nice picture, too.

Your's is an excellent image, Pete--the two spheroids are immediately
apparent. The clouds give the illusion that Venus is a small "moon"
orbiting the moon!

Hi Pete,
Perfect weather (so far) here in the southeastern Mediterranean.
Anxiously waiting for the second half (reappearance).
I was impressed how bright Venus appeared .. and especially in relation
to the moon.
Back within the hour with lots of material.
Good luck with the second half of the occultation.
Anthony.

That's a rather atmospheric image Pete, no pun intended.
