Description

I'm still very much a beginner to Astrophotography, a good friend has been helping and guiding me and his assistance is very much appreciated, although I am an accomplished photographer, astrophotography has blown my mind.

This took a total of 11 images of 300 seconds each @ ISO400 stacked in Nebulosity.

Wiki definition: -

In astronomy, the Pleiades (/ˈplaɪədiːz/ or /ˈpliːədiːz/), or Seven Sisters (Messier 45 or M45), is an open star cluster containing middle-aged, hot B-type stars located in the constellation of Taurus. It is among the nearest star clusters to Earth and is the cluster most obvious to the naked eye in the night sky.
