Venus and the Pleiades Night 2

Venus and the Pleiades Night 2

The weather started off clear just after 8pm but very quickly turned cloudy. To see the Pleiades in the frame through the clouds the exposure was long enough to cause major flaring of Venus. On a clearer night Venus reproduced as a bright sphere with diffraction spikes. Hoping the weather is better on April 4th.
