Getting slimmer
It's interesting to see how Venus keeps getting bigger and slimmer at the same time. It's still quite bright in the evening sky - it's visible even before Sun is set. Sunset was at 17:14, but I could already see the planet at 17:05.

Settings: Canon SX50 HS - 1200mm (2x enlarged) - ISO 80 - 1/1000s - f/6.5
