Details:
The planet Venus is on its way behind the Sun. It will be there soon, because it is already 99.6% illuminated and 258.1 million km away from Earth. Here from Earth, it is seen very close to the Sun. This should not be attempted without the necessary protective equipment and certainly not in simple binoculars, because Venus is only seen at an apparent distance from the Sun of 4.9°. Manual focus, iso 100, f8 and 1/1000 sec.
