Venus and Pleiades with T5i at 300mm

Venus did a pretty close fly by of the Pleiades over the past few days. I got this photo before the objects set behind my neighbor's roof. In hindsight I wish I did a stack of light frames with a high f-number so I could get that nice radiant lens flare around bright Venus while still seeing more of the Pleiades cluster. Oh well, I'll take these single frames at least - you can compare the look of Venus at f/9 and f/5.6 below...
