Venus and the Pleiades - March 30, 2020

West Des Moines, IA

Shooting in my driveway through a neighbors tree. Did not care about the tree obscuring anything and actually was a bit of an added bit of scenery. I just wanted to see what exposures would be needed and hoping that the next few nights would be clear enough to be able to capture this, the April 2020 event.

This is a composite of 3 shots that I tracked on an i-Optron mount. The first pic (top) appears to have not tracked very well, but the others did. Tomorrow I will move the lens to have a clear view.
