Description

My last image of the year is a wide field view of the Pleiades dust in the Taurus constellation. As I waited for my new camera I wanted something with a super wide FOV, so I used a mini rig, the Canon RP (mod) and the Askar 180, mounted on the AM5 which was a bit of an overkill lol but allowed for unguided exposures.

In the end I got over 12 hours, and that was more than enough to get some nice dust details.
