Description

As I have a telescope with 1000mm focal length (SkyWatcher 1000PDS) and "only" an APS-c sized sensor (ZWO ASI 2600-MC Pro) I had to do a 2x2 mosaic to have the Pleiades on a single picture. However, the weather and conditions were really bad recently. I had to collect on 5 different nights to get a decent amount of exposure to finish this project.
