Venus and the Pleiades


Venus-Jupiter Telescopic view

Venus passed through the Pleiades star cluster over the course of a few days, but with poor conditions (low angle, light pollution, and thin clouds) this was the best I could manage. This image was taken with a Nikon D700 (ISO 800. 4 sec) with a Borg 100ED @ f/6.4 on a Losmandy GM-8 mount.
