Data reduction and stacking in Deep Sky Stacker
Level adjustments in Photoshop

I setup with hopes to catch a view of Venus and the Pleiades in conjunction, though clouds were quite heavy. Eventually the sky cleared just enough for about 8 minutes, just long enough to capture the conjunction. As a bonus, the International Space Station passed through my field of view, which is the vertical streak to the right. It was a beautiful night out regardless of cloud issues.
