We were pointing at the same stars last night, beautiful clear night in East Cork. That's one of the finest shots of M45 I've seen, not over cooked and it's full of detail. Excellent 

Thanks, much appreciated. Think we had a lucky brief clear corridor, rain to both north and south

Stunning picture and amazing depth from 3 hours exposure - shows what a RASA can do in the right hands.

Wow, 3 hrs and that much dust already, you got to hand it to the RASA, that's incredible.

I'm working on M45 too as a first light target with the asi 294mm, i'm using my TS76EDPH @ f4,5 for this, chances are that weather won't permit me to gather much, so i'm curious to compare my data with this result, but it surly won't be that deep.

Nicely done !
