Question

Is there any way that I can get a good shot as the sun sets with venus through a polaris 60eq-d;2.4...I know from here it will be at sunset...will my eye burn or what?...I have all the goodies to film too..what about welding goggles?......I don't know,I'm just a star gazer.....help please

Pray to the deity (if any) you beleive in that you're local tele shop or camera shop has a solar filter. If not, get 2 blue and 2 red light filters. Gel covers and tape them together. The gel cover will only work for your camera to see it, your eyes will still be ruined.
