Venus, Newton T114/900

[hevelsky]

Details on Venus with a colour webcam....and....with my small Newton 114/900... ;)
Very good seeing in the night of the 10 April,
I was totally surprised when I saw details on the blue layer !!! First, I thought that it was artifacts, but after having compared with other images of Venus made the same day, I concluded that I succeeded in having details on venus surface . :thumbsup:

(Sorry my english is terrible....I'm french...) :lol: :lol:
