Description

What can be captured in just a few minutes?
I wanted to capture the plejades this night, planned integration time was somewhere around4 to 5 hrs.
After starting the exposure sequence, clouds rolled in so that I was forced to terminate the session. After checking the camera data, the first 9 images of each 60sec. turned out to be usable.
Now, this is, what can be achieved with 9minutes of total exposure on the Plejades. At least, one can see, which object it is and the brighter parts of the reflection nebulae came
out quite well.

Next clear night I hope to complete a few hours on that target.
