Nice work guys! Venus really is looking majestic at the moment and those pics really capture her full glory.

Nicely done Mark! Judging by the amount of light in the sky, I'd say you're an early riser alright! Still, nice to have a sight like that to welcome you.
Reminds me of when I had to get up for school early (7am) and sometimes I'd get to see the planets that early!

Lovely shots Mark :D

coruscations attending the whole length of the luminosity, giving to the phenomena the aspect of a wrathful messenger, and not that of a tranquil body pursuing a harmless course..comet of 1680
