The Pleiades

This is my third go at M45 (the Pleiades) this season, because I wasn’t happy with the other two. About half of this was taken in the presence of the 1st quarter moon.
Astro-Physics 92mm Stowaway refractor, Nikon D810A camera, Astro-Physics Mach2GTO tracking mount, guiding scope, camera and software.
I separated the stars from the background nebulosity so I could really stretch the fine interstellar dust without blowing out the bright stars. Mostly I just stretched this. A little bit of sharpening.
