Default Venus Jan 11th

Didn't have my webcam gear with me this evening so I had to opt for a
Mak-Cas on an alt-az tripod plus a digital camera. Amazing sight
through the viewfinder; the thin crescent literally rippling with
colour so low down in the atmosphere. Not long now and it'll be up
early to catch it.

Picture quality not fantastic but it was a little bit low ;-)
