Observation of Venus from this afternoon. The phase really is now very small,and visually appears to be around 4%. I wondered if there might have been slight cusp extensions,however seeing was rather poor,so I am far from certain of this. Hoping to catch them as we progress towards conjunction in August!
Hope all you southern observers are enjoying Saturn! I have two pitiful drawings which show virtually nothing!

Here is my latest color image of Venus dated July 30, 2015. 23:07:37 UT. Seeing was 6-7/10 with lots of daylight summer turbulence, transparency 3/5. The north and south atmospheric cusp extensions may have been visible in the eyepiece but I need better seeing than this in order to record their paper thin dimensions. This Venus image was drizzled 1.5x in AS!2 with 300 AP's used, I then resized it 80% in Rv6. Imaging altitude was only 29 degrees and it is lowering every day. The eyepiece view is incredible!
