Details:
In 2009 a remarkable picture of a slender crescent Venus was made by Eddie Guscott near inferior conjunction showing the faint arcs extending beyond the sunlit crescent around to the night side of Venus. 2017 conjunction is almost identical to the 2009 one then with the newer cameras even better pictures should be done by experimented amateur astronomers !
