Pleiades widefield

Hi folks!

The Pleiades, a starcluster, which is crossing a huge cloud of dust . This causes the wonderful reflection nebulae. But also in the further surrounding you can find a lot of dust. I tried to capture that.
I went to my place but after only 3 photos the fog monster captured me .

Some minutes before:

The next day I went to my second place, 1600 m above sea level.
Looks better now :

I could capture 6.5 hrs. Two days later I added some data.

Done with Theli and PS.
Very difficult processing.

I did 15x600s L, 15x600sR, 16x600s G and 15x600s B with the Moravian G2-8300FW and Canon EF200 f/3.5.

Hi Werner,

That is a beautiful Pleiades photo. Amazing colours and I love the surrounding dust.

Great star trail photos also. I love the scenery.

Thanks.

Ross.
