Description

As new to astrophotography I start from all the "well known" objects in the sky. M45 was quite difficult for me because of the very bright stars. 

The camera, ASI1600MM, created photos with the microlensing artifact issue which I did not remove during editing. (Clearly seen in the three bright stars low in the photo, Alcyone, Atlas and Pleione).

Thanks for visiting
