Details:
After a small storm the horizon seemed really clear. I have observed the sunset of the Sun and it has not shown colors. Looking at Venus, however, things were different: it showed clearly and almost continuously a line of light from red to green to blue, up to less than 5 minutes from the horizon of the sea. I then observed the sunset of the Moon and Jupiter this evening in conjunction: the Moon showed no green shades, instead in Jupiter they were very evident. They were very close to the dome of the church of S. M. Regina Pacis of Ostia, Rome, giving a beautiful image.
I observed with a dobson 12 "at 76x. The pics have been made with a smartphone. The photo of the conjunction with a canon
