Biked all the way to HortPark to get a clear view of the west and managed to catch a glimpse of Venus for a bit, but the clouds started closing in. I was only able to stack the HIP 70414—which is in the Boötes constellation—for 8 minutes, and it got skewed by the clouds, too. Boötes is a prominent northern constellation that, at the time of the shoot, was directly above me.
