Celestron C8 with Venus & Clouds

This image shows the Celestron C8 I was using for observing, mounted atop my Losmandy GM8. I quite like the image, even though it has clouds in it!
The image shows just how bright Venus was, causing significant light pollution problems until it finally set well below the horizon.
