Paul G. Abel
Attached is my first observation of Venus in the new 2020-2021 Western elongation.
Seeing was rather poor and there was little to see on the disk apart from the terminator shading.
The cusp caps and collars were not observed.

Stanislas Maksymowicz
Here is a report of venus performed with the 102mm refractor under good images and a transparent sky.
AL was there at an intensity not reaching the L1 level.
Notes are incorporated with the sketch.
The AL exhibited a yellowish tint near the terminator and yellowish blue tint away,〓the intensity fading toward the dark side limb.
The dotted lines show the AL extension〓when using the polar filter and turning it by 90°.
