Some initial images of the Mercury Transit from yesterday.  For those interested in calculating the AU. I have uploaded full disk images in the solar archive which were taken at the following times: 1530:30, 1600:00, 1630:00, 1700:00; 1730:30 and 1800:01 UT. The time was exactly at the time identified (Full hour and half an hour) and was synchronized with the official US time http://time.gov . In addition, the location from where the images were taken is identified on the images.
