yes mate, that is jupiter that i managed to image with my 10" dob from andrews communication. i used a webcam and captured it as it went through the viewing area.
venus is very bright, after the sun and moon, the brightest thing you will see
venus is above jupiter and to the left as you look with the naked eye to the west at around say 7pm.
remember everything is inverted when you look thru the scope, so venus will appear to be below and to the right as you move around looking at the two at the moment while they are close
