When I had seen this first time as a thumbnail in new photos, I didn't understand really what it was. Because Venus was a small dot and couldn't be seen in thumbnail. I thought it is some kind of dark-bright squares play. :) When I saw this in full size, bump... it was really a nice idea.
I love astronomy. That is so cool that you captured this. The different movement shots are very cool. Thanx for posting an ACTUAL picture of our solar system :)
Think about the photo before and after, never during. The secret is to take your time. You mustn't go too fast. The subject must forget about you. Then, however, you must be very quick.
