The pictures above, taken by Valentin Grigore in 2004 and Dan Uza in 2012, along with Andrei Dorian Gheorghe’s haiku, also represent an invitation to see two inventive anthologies (particularly of astropoetry and generally of astro-photo-art-poetry or cosmopoetry) dedicated to the last Venus transit pair:
