Hi,

Heading to work this morning at 6:25am :(

I looked up and spotted a very bright object in the sky in a south east direction.

It was very bright (looked great) but as the morning progressed it got smaller etc.

I'm I right in saying it is Venus ?

Amazingly bright.

It was quite low, for comparison, when I was in Tunisia. Still, it was bright as a beacon near the horizon preceeding the sun.
