Hi,
Ive a second pic of the pleiades + Venus taken 24 hours after the first pic.
This pic is only 1 frame (2.5seconds at iso1600) with the same hardware setup as previously used, the wind was very gusty and I had no shade so nearly all of the pics were blurred in some manner.
Sometimes the pic link doesnt work, if it doesn't for you , you can see it at

Nice image Dave! Interesting to see how much Venus moved in just 24hrs.
