And then there were Eight!

A conjunction of planet Venus and the seven sisters (Pleaides) was up for sky gazers tonight over the western horizon just after sunset. Clouds tried to ruin the frame but was lucky enough to get few exposures in a small window through high and thin clouds.
Planet Venus will continue to rise up until it reaches its western elongation on June 4 and then put on a show with planet Mars around the beehive cluster whereas mars will be right on the beehive on 2nd June and Venus on 12th June.

Wishing you all clear and clean skies.
