Description

The Pleiades, M45 imaged at Riverside Astronomical Society's annual Nightfall Star Party, held at The Palm Canyon Resort in Borrego Springs, CA. Testing out the Hutech modified Canon 6d, although I know this objects doesn't really demonstrate the "modified" part of the camera. Further I was pleasantly surprised by how low the noise is on this camera.
