Here are some Venus images from Oct 1st in good conditions.
UV365, W47 and IR780nm images were taken.
Interesting details are noted. The "rift" in the SPH, the dark equatorial band, and the dusky markings in IR. Notably in IR the NPR appears darker, with some faint banding.
The W47 image clearly shows the UV markings, but with less contrast.
Best Wishes,
