No problem, just nice to compare images. Especially with Venus, particularly because the features can be so subtle at times. Its good to see what other imagers are teasing out of their data.

Exactly Pete, and that's just what I was doing with your earlier posted image just now.  Great image by the way.  Much more contrast with your set up as might be expected.

Great for aurora, and, when it is clear, great transparency.
