We had reasonable seeing here early this morning and IU made an observation fo Venus before the heat of the day started to build.  I used a variety of filters to examine the disk which is now about 66% illuminated.  There seemed to be a darker diagonal streak in the south and a fainter one to the north.  Other points ionclude:
bright Limb Band: visible and complete
Terminator: Geometrically regular
Cusp Caps:  The northern cusp cap was very large but dull, conversely the southern cusp cap was smal but rather bright.
Cusp Collars:  The southern cusp collar was seen, and there seemed to be some darker shading around this region.  The northern collar was much harder to see.
