After days of cloud the sky finally cleared and I had a wonderful view of the line-up. In the images, if you look carefully, you can also see sigma Leo near Jupiter and beta Virginis (Zavijava) between Venus and Mars.
Hopefully the skies will be claer for tomorrow, when the Moon is close to Venus, and we can have a go at seeing Venus in the daylight.
