Venus set at 6.00.14 tonight, on the extreme right-hand side of the tree. I tried using filters tonight to see if this made viewing Venus easier. The red filters seemed to help a little, the darker red being better.
I had problems with light cloud tonight and found it difficult to estimate if the angle of the phase was different from last evenings.
To answer my own question from yesterday, I found a site that stated that Venus will be 8 degrees from the Sun at Inferior Conjunction. Given that the Sun is setting on a higher part of the mountain ridgeline than Venus, and that Venus is to the South of the Sun (meaning it sets later)I do have hopes of being able to see it at Inferior Conjunction.
