Details:
It was just a spontaneous idea - why wait until the time after sunset? So I set up my equipment in the garden at 5 p.m. in broad daylight with the sun standing high in the sky and tried to catch the pair through a 115/800mm refractor plus 1.4 converter. And next to Venus, even being visible with the naked eye, Jupiter stood not far away looking like a faint and hazy disk - a daytime conjunction.
