Venus in three wavelengths 19th April

About this image

As this is the fifth day since the last time a discontinuity was spotted in IR it should have been feasible to detect if still there. I tried two different wavelengths in IR and could pick up faint cloud details, stronger with the 840-1020 nm range, but nothing that looks like the discontinuity. Also image Venus in UV where again some interesting cloud features are showing.
