More Daytime Venus.

This year just seems to be full of unique events. Now is the turn of Venus. Thanks to the position of the lovely cresent moon Venus was easy to find and really bright against the blue sky. All pics taken at 15:20 hrs WST and are hand held afocal using an Olympus 410 compact digital. The first is taken through my 9X50 finderscope. Very happy.
