The Pleiades capture Venus

Lovely view of Venus and the Pleiades in tonight's twilight and early evening. Great view through binoculars. Took a couple of shots. Like the one with the reflection looking like a claw capturing Venus.

Great to do some observing and imaging in the current circumstances.

Keep safe and well.

Very nice Richard, an extremely difficult target. When I saw it it was just above my roof, then by the time I tried to get organised it went below my roof line. Fantastic results

Thanks David.

I think Astronomy is going to help keep me sane over the coming weeks and months
