7 minute M45

[Starman]

The Pleiades were in a perfect position the other night while I waited for Mars to climb a bit higher in the sky, so I took a few 7 minute subs of it ready for stacking. Time's been a bit short lately and I got carried away fiddling with one of the subs. So here it is, a 7 minute exposure on M45 using a Hutech modified 40D attached to a Takahashi Epsilon 130 astrograph. No calibration applied.

[Starman]

Thanks all

I've not given up on Mars and as soon as the weather clears and seeing improves, I'll be back on the red one once more.

A seven minute wonder here Pete.

Such a profusion of nebulosity.

You should venture beyond the Solar System a lot more mate, you're good at it.

A great amount of nebulosity picked up Pete for such a short time. Just shows how much is picked up by the fast Epsilon.

Outstanding work Pete!

That is amazing for just 7 minutes, some folks do hours on M45 and dont come up with close the level of nebulosity here.
