Venus Just Past Dichotomy
“Venus just past its half-lit dichotomy point, transitioning toward a thicker crescent.”
Just two days after the previous capture, Venus has moved just past dichotomy, its illuminated portion now visibly less than half as it transitions from gibbous toward crescent phase, with the apparent disk noticeably larger than earlier in the year.
Captured as a single video and stacked in AutoStakkert!3, then processed in PixInsight.
