Detector: Canon 350D mod

Guide: SW 80/400 + OSSAG

Very nice well done.

Love it. Fluffy and nice nebulosity and a good wide angle.

Edit: I also found a renewed love for M45 yesterday when I watched BBC Seven Ages Of Starlight. It seems the Pleiades are really really young and fresh stars, still swimming in the dust from where they were born. Typically Orion, chasing after the new kids loitering on his porch.

Hi,

Well done, that is a good looking image. I too have recently captured M45, only downside is i accidently deleted my flat and bias frames prior to processing

Ian this image is without calibration frames. I am at the beginning of my adventure with astrophotography, so my picture are without calibration frames yet.

Very nicely done. Lots of faint nebulosity showing through.

Beautiful! Always amazed by how straight some of the dust lines are. Nice hint of colour towards the top (Other than blue!)

Cheers

Thank you again for the nice review. So I am exciting that you like my picture.

The more that this is my begining in astrophoto - this is my 7'th photo on equatorial mount and mu equipment is 'humble'

As a curiosity - On the picture identified the two galaxy PGC

PGC 13696 (17.29 mag) and PGC 13557 (15.94 mag). PGC 13696 look's great!
