Thanks for noting the first few amateur observations done of Venus' surface in recent years. The article in the current issue is of course more about Daniele Gasparri's work. He rightly notes Christophe Pellier's first observations before writing about his own imaging and the techniques employed.
Although I don't reference old issues of the magazine in articles as often as I used to, I wish I'd remembered to note that 1 page article in the 1st issue of AS&T!
Regards,
Greg
