Venus is so bright right now because it is a crescent. This is also probably why some of you are seeing the different "shapes" of the light being reflected. Most of what you see from Venus right now through a telescope is the dark side. The reason it is so bright when it is crescent is that it is at it's closest to Earth.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 14011374 Venus is not currently visible from the US. Saturn however is visible and very bright in the western sky tonight...
