If you look closely on the 3rd picture you can see the small dot on the right side of the sun as labeled- Venus about to exit the transit.

I hope this is a better mercury transit pix

QUOTED IMAGE

I'm sorry Tony but that Venus image is way too small to see anything . Have a link to a large image ? I can barely see Mercury . Check out my Mercury Transit on my website . Click the thumbnails for large images .
