Here is my latest image taken on the 6th August at 4.33am, I used my Celestron 100mm f9 Apo Refractor with Meade Apo 2x barlow lens & Meade DSI.

Hi George, Your first post? Welcome

That look great mate. I've never tried to image Venus before and never used Meade DSI. How many frames is that from?

I used K3ccd tools and captured 97 frames but only 17 frames where used for final image.

Hi George,

to IceInSpace!

Venus is a tough capture at the moment, being so low.

Looks like you've caught the phase well.

Practice makes perfect. Nice shot
