Looking for Venus yesterday, Stellarium showed it would be directly overhead at my location (Albion, Brisbane) at 14:47. I just set my scope pointing straight up and there it was. Had another go today with a similar predicted time overhead. Noticed from Stellarium that Venus was closely following track of the Sun. I set up a bit early today at 13:45, aimed my scope to have the Sun directly behind and then 'dropped the nose' to scan down. And there she was again.
Two or three Astrofests ago, Jupiter was right next to a new Moon crescent. I remember people having a look throughout the day.
