Growing Horns

[N1 (Mirko)]

Caught a shot of Venus today.

4.4° from Sun, 0.3% illuminated.

FS60 @f/18 and ASI120MM. Pipp/AS/RS. Parallel lines are diffraction artifacts, empahsised by the stacking process. I feel they should not be removed as they tell a story. The crescent is razor thin.

Weather not looking too flash for later in the week unfortunately but "Happy Conjunction Week" to whomever is pursuing her.
