For me, Venus set at 6.12 tonight, still behind the 'prominent' tree, though to the right of where it has set the last 2 evenings. I take this as meaning that Venus is now moving in a northerly direction. Venus is clearly decreasing it distance from the Sun in both a vertical (through setting time) and in a horizontal sense (moving to the right whilst the Sun is moving left when setting behind the Mountain ridge).
It is obvious that making these observations will become increasingly difficult each day from now on.
