The Hyades in Taurus

[Scooot]

The Hyades in Taurus is always a great sight, headed by the eye of the bull Aldebaran. 

This was taken on the evening of 18/19th November 18 with a fairly bright moon, 87% illuminated but a CLS filter helped. I used my Canon 450DSLR with Samyang 135mm F2 at F4, ISO 400, 150 30 second lights on the Star Adventurer. Stacked & processed in PixInsight. I took a lot of fairly short exposures to try and avoid over exposing the bright stars. Hope you like it.

Nice image. I like to look at this with a low power Eyepiece.
