This trio of Venus images captured when the planet was close to the horizon on May 25, 2020, shows the effects of atmospheric chromatic dispersion. In the first image I had forgotten to put on the UV/IR blocking filter, and I believe the white-ish edge is from infrared light. The second and third images are from the same video capture, with the UV/IR filter on the camera. The difference is, for the second image I did not align the color channels, in order to represent the view seen by eye through the telescope.
