Venus + Pleiades

Starwave 70mm f6 doublet refractor
Astrotrac
Another ridiculously over exposed image of Venus next to the Pleiades last night from the garden.
I think the dimmest star here is about magnitude 15, ~40 million times dimmer than Venus. A hint here of M45's nebulosity.
Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker, processed in Pixinsight & Faststone Image Viewer. Cropped.
Total exposure 23 minutes 32 sec (2 beers).
