Details:
Crescent Moon approaches the Pleiades star cluster at dawn. This is as close to occultation as I got before the clouds rolled in along with the light of day from the rising sun. It was easy to catch the Pleiades in June with the Crescent Moon guiding the way. Nikon D5500 at 150mm. An interesting night at the observatory with airglow earlier and then the conjunction!
