Waning gibbous moon, the planet Jupiter, and the Pleiades star cluster

It took me all evening to capture a photo of the Pleiades star cluster, but I finally got one. While it's not a great photo, you can see the Pleiades star cluster--also known as the Seven Sisters. The first photo was taken as the Moon was rising.

The second photo is of the Moon and Jupiter.

To see the Pleiades star cluster, you'll need to click on the third image to enlarge it. The cluster is to the lower left of the Moon.
