Auriga to Hyades

Description

A two panel mosaic shot with the 50mm a couple weeks ago. Nice area of sky, a whole bunch of star clusters scattered around the image including the great Hyades star cluster which makes up the head of Taurus. Picked up a smudge of nebulosity in Auriga mainly from the Flaming Star nebula but nothing compared to how much i would of captured with a modded cam! Theres also a faint but nice band of dust separating the two contellations which would need more much exposure time to define i think.

Exposure details:

14* 300 secs for each panel, f4, ISO 1600, flats and darks, 50mm

Taken with a Canon 1100D and a 50mm 1.8 lens on a NEQ6
