Inner planets and more aperture

I'm trying to find the time to snap the planets in the western in the lead-up to the closest approach of Mars and Venus tomorrow night. The shots I took last night were a bit closed up... f8 at 70 mm. Opened it up to f4 tonight and got a smoother image.

Also a bit of cloud about... gives the shot a certain Je ne sais pas, but I don't know what it is.
