Venus from this morning

[davidpretorius]

I am processing the jups at the moment, but after I had done mercury and uranus, a quick try on venus.

With the settings i had for uranus i think, i centred on venus and thought how cool this looked!!

So all in all 4 planets from this morning!

Well done DP. Are you trying to set a record for the most planets photographed in the same day?

[davidpretorius]

mars is spoiling the party, but at the moment technically you could get
mars
saturn
jupiter
neptune
venus
uranus
mercury

saturn, jupiter and maybe neptune would be good due to altitude, but you could do it!

[davidpretorius]

interesting dave.
Is that some surface detail i can see it the top left? :P

[davidpretorius]

yup mate, the blue ring around the planet is the atmosphere. The venusians need something to breathe!

I didn't want to mention it but I think you may have astigmatism. When was the last time you had your eyes checked?:P
