Two months of Venus images

[lukebl]

Here's a sequence of captures of Venus over the past two months. Recently, I've been disappointed at the lack of detail compared to a month ago, possibly due to the seeing deteriorating or maybe the vagaries of my own processing techniques are to blame.

I've shown two versions here. The top one has the UV image in the red channel, and IR image in the blue channel. The bottom version is reversed. The convention seems to be for the top version, but as it's false colour anyway, I think I prefer the blue version.

Omegon RC8, Televue 3x Barlow, Atik428ex, Baader UV and IF filters.

Excellent series. I have been following Venus during this apparition, but visually and doing some sketching. It has been fascinating .
