Venus inferior conjunction.
8 years ago, on 11th Jan, 2014, I took photos of Venus inferior conjunction by panning my camera simply by 5 degrees upper from the Sun nearly at noon. Venus positioned at north by 5 degrees so when I took photos nearly at noon I just panned my camera in altitude direction.
After 8 years, today on 9th Jan, 2022, Venus comes to inferior conjunction, and 8 years almost equals to 5 synodic periods between Earth and Venus, so not only the date but also the situation of the inferior conjunction coincides.
So, I took photos by panning my camera simply 5 degrees upper from the Sun, again, and I got it.
After 8 years, on 6th-7th Jan. 2030, we can see similar Venus conjunction.
