Real nice image showing change. I trust that you will continue that we can see the sequence of opposing crescents. Without checking, I'm not certain of Venus' visibility for Southerners. When she passes Sun, she becomes the morning star or evening star in Australia.
Are these images shot with any fancy setup or motorized mount?

I'll try an keep imaging as much as possible. It really depends on my ability to get up early in the morning (and the early morning cresent phase will be in an unfavorable position from my viewing area). Venus is currently the evening star here, and will become the morning star after January.
No fancy set up. Non- motorized equatorial mount, plain vanilla 4" Newtonian reflector. Imaging system a modified webcam run by Vega.
