Close encounter of the rare kind

On the morning of January 9th 2016, Venus and Saturn flew past eachother no more than a few arc-minutes apart. There have been some of these events in my days, but most of them have been unubservable due to weather. It looked like I was going to miss this one too, as the clouds were pulling over the area where the planets were. But a few openings in the clouds let me take some quick photos. The following is a blend of two images, given that Venus is hundreds of times brighter than Saturn as seen from Earth. So I took two photos of varying length and blended them in PS.

Tech data : Pentax K5, ISO640, William Optics 132FLT w/ AVR-IV resulting in F/5.6, Exposures 1/250th sec (Saturn) and 1/5000th sec (Venus). Blended in PS.
