Venus at Sunset

The subject is not so exciting in this photograph but all the shades of blue caught my eye. So I took a 10 second exposure shot with the tripod.

Venus is bright but it also seems like a fuzzy white blob in the telescope eyepiece when I look at it.

Here is a picture of a rather bright Venus in the western sky. I tried to get a picture of the cresent moon but it went down.

Tomorrow I will try to get some pictures of the moon, Venus, Jupiter, and Mercury after sunset.
