Description

Hi all
This week end, we had finally 2 clear nights.
Thus, I've been allowed to image one target for quite a long time.
As I've still not got my A7IV back from my astro moder, I had to use my non converted camera.
So I picked a RGB target, and the Pléiades were the very best candidate.
And I also had to test my new mount...an IOptron GEM45.

I'm very pleased with the result. Pretty sure I still can have a better result with this stack. Well see within the next few days when I'll post a new revision of this piece
