[AZ-Observing] Venus by day

Hey Sam, great contribution to the "documenting of the event"!

Relating to viewing Venus during the daytime, if you don't mind, please
post your images of that, too, after processing.  Would love to see
them.  

Were you able to clearly discern Venus by naked eye, or were you
referring to the view obtained using your 300mm?  I've not observed
Venus during the day, but have always heard that it's quite easy if the
position is plotted with some precision.

Holiday best,

Darrell Spencer

Here's my contribution to documenting the event:

I also got some images with a DSLR + 300mm lens taken around noon  
yesterday, but haven't processed those as of yet. It was pretty neat  
to be able to clearly see Venus during the daytime.
