April 29 Venus comparisons

About this image

Coincidentally I was carrying out similar imaging on the same day as David Arditti. I am in the process of comparing a number of cameras and their performance in IR on Venus, as well as continuing to use the two cameras in this test to do UV imaging on Venus. Seeing was just about OK but nothing special. I was hoping to catch a possible sighting of the wave feature that can appear every five days but there was no sign of it im my images.
