Here is a report performed with the R76mm under average good images on best¬moments and operated under a relative transparent sky.
No bright spot.
AL was more than suspected with the R filter,full dark side,as shown,with polar filter exhibiting the almost full dark side (maximum extention¬at the dot line),¬ with 88x magnification,planet heigth¬50‹,also with¬ a marked light yellowish-brown tint well noted near the terminator and away. Cusp extension was evaluated to¬be more suspected at south.
Dark markings on the AL light was there,¬seemed¬tilted in correlation with the cusp extention.
The light intensity on dark side was degrading from¬terminator¬towards the dark side limb,partial extension with the YG,B filters and¬ using polar filter,with the R filter at 88x magnification and no filter with 45x magnification on full dark side extention,the intensity was almost reaching a L1 ¬(3 the highest) .
Turning the polar filter by 90‹ extincted¬the light level to a reduced level intensity and extention,but not null,the variation of light remained¬subtil but well noted,its extention¬limited.

Paul G. Abel
the disk was only 2% illuminated and the cusp extensions were now apparent.
The planet is getting rather close to the Sun now so this is likely to be my last Venus observation for the current elongation.
