Pleiades RGB, Star 71 and 100D

This is from last night. 50 mins worth of 150 sec exposures, iso 400, DSS, PS.

To be honest, these subs were taken to add to a couple of hours of Ha, also from last night, but they came out as a noisy mess and added nothing to this image. I've learnt that the Pleiades doesn't have much Ha emissions! Because the subs were really just designed to add a bit of star colour, it didn't really capture much of the nebulosity, but it's still a beautiful cluster!

There are red colours to be captured around the cluster but they are ERE (extended red emission) rather than Ha.  It's always good to try, though. You won't catch a fish every time but if you don't try you won't succeed.

Had another go with a slightly different approach to integrating Ha and RGB... also got a bit more aggressive   and this is the result.

I love the Pleiades.  It always make me happy to see them again.
