Venus 1.3% illuminated
Thought Id have a go at finding Venus as it runs towards Inferior Conjunction on Jan 12. Today, it is 1.3% illuminated. I used the Argo Navis aligning on the Sun with my 10 inch f5.6 scope. Manually pushed it to where the Argo Navis indicated Venus would be, removed solar filter and there she was. Quite readily visible through the camera viewfinder. Shot a quick video, seeing nowhere near as good as in Shahgazer's pic. I wonder if I can push my luck and image it at Conjunction?
