Description

Another shot at M45. This time with a 80mm/f6 scope for a bit wider view than my previous attempt. Unfortunately, I forgot to take blue subs so I ended up using RGB subs from an uncompleted 135mm/f2 Rokinon project. I've done this before and it worked out OK. The L subs were quite short in order to keep the bright stars from blowing out too much. Startools really bloats stars when stretching hard so the stars were stretched separately and layered in. L 35x70s, RGB 18x50s (using Rokinon 135mm)
