Venus Evening Apparition 2009


I took a series of photos of Venus that shows pretty well how Venus evolved during that evening apparition. Then, with the images I took, Filipe Dias came up with an animation showing the positions of Venus and Earth in the dates I took the corresponding photograph. 8" reflector at f/10 and SPC900NC.
