APOD 4.2

This is a picture of the bright planet Venus. This picture was taken as Venus passed over the Pleiades and created the interesting light. This photo of the "seven sisters" was taken from Arizona and appear much less bright than Venus. The seven sisters are the stars that make up the Pleiades. The light distortion that is created is from the telescopic lens and not from the apparent "star crossing"
