Details:
Venus superior conjunction, observed near the sun. Venus is the fixed speck of light, among the numerous moving particles visible near the sun. To do this observation, i used a special solar filter. this filter is located near the focal plane and tilted to get reflected sun beam out of the scope. the filtering coating is removed on a circular area to have an unfiltered area to spot Venus. Though this requires some caution in order to avoid having direct sunbeam going in the unfiltered area, the observation was not too difficult, with venus visible when zooming the viewfinder of the mirrorless camera.
