Details:
Finding planet Venus during daytime these days is well worth the trouble…
This was the feeling that I had today while trying to capture Venus in daytime. Pointing blindly the scope to the computed position and searching the planet through the eyepiece for about 10 seconds rewarded me with a superb view of the thin crescent.
One of the above images is an approximation of the view I had at the eyepiece at 250x through a 127mm Maksutov telescope, the image of the planet itself being the result of the session.
The other images are the true result of the Venus session, and two views of the small sunspot groups visible on the Sun surface today.
