The Pleiades (M45) in Taurus

All,

This is data that had been sitting on my hard drive, neglected, for five years. Shot in August 2010, on a DSLR, this was quite low on the horizon and the image shows it; there's an abundance of noise exacerbated via stretching.

I thought I'd attempt a process on it as I was out early one morning last week and I saw these gems sparkling in the north-eastern sky. I look forward to re-imaging them this year with the CCD camera.

Overall, I'm not terribly excited by this image, but, thought I'd post it anyway.

Slightly larger version available here.

Thanks for looking!
