Time lapse of #Moon moving past #Venus in its orbit before fading into clouds. 71 x 50 x 6 ms UV-CutOff in Celestron 8" + 0.33x reducer.

A later telescopic view of #Moon and #Venus near closest approach. At this scale the phase of Venus can be seen. 100 x 8 ms UV-CutOff in Celestron 8" + 0.33x reducer.
And here a stacked view for better quality but without plane. 100 x 8 ms RGB in 300mm / f4.0 lens.

…and out the other side. So much fun!
