I am going to try and catch Venus every couple of days for as long possible/safe to do so. Still doing a UV image, but more interested in the thinnest crescent possible.
Yesterday evening i imaged in UV, then IR. I have been using the Astronomik 807 Proplanet for the I/R images. The seeing was excellent last night, when i was imaging so i tried my Blue filter that was in the wheel from previous RGB sessions. I was very surprised that it was far sharper and more stable than the 807 filter, despite the settings being very similar.
I have been getting a bit of an "onion ring" effect, but that vanished immediately.
ALL images with C9.25, Asi290mm, X1.8 Barlow. Top image is UV, middle 807 filter, bottom blue filter.
