Hi there!

Here is Venus imaged with an Astronomik Proplanet IR742.

There is a bit of processing artifact visible around the rim of the disc.


Cheers,

Eric

Thanks Stuart. I must say, unless you can catch some details on the disc, imaging Venus can be a bit of a non event (at least in my view).

I wanted to try the new filter under average conditions. I think it's my best venus so far in terms of disc definition.

Cheers,

Eric

Thanks Dennis.

Steve, it's a Sky Watcher 10" dobs and an ASI120MM camera (with x2.5 Powermate).

Cheers,
