Description

The Hyades represent a very interesting asterism visible to the naked eye, with its "V" shape. It is traditionally the head of Taurus and star Aldebaran is his eye.

With so little time, the 135mm lens has managed to bring out some clouds of gas. A wider field could be even more interesting and more datas could highlight the Taurus Molecular Cloud.
