philsail1 Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Yes, very nice Venus "Trevor."To many mere "mortals" it would just look a "nice" photo, but to those with a little astronomical knowledge, to see Venus hanging there in the blackness of space, is something special indeed.Regards,philsail1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Having tried something similar this week with disasterous results, I can see how impressive this is. Really sharp. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ant Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 That is really very nice. Venus is so hard to do well. I really struggle with Venus, it's an issue with the contrast of venus vs surrounding black sky and that there are no features to aid focusing and lastly (during evening apperitions) the sky is normally boiling away like a good'un...Nice Ant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
