I love this simple cluster through binocs, or at low mag through a scope to avoid the wobbles. I stumbled across the Pleiades the first time I peeked through a scope in late 2007 (a modest little Meade ETX-60, FL=350mm), and remember gazing for ages. Even at 23x using a cheap super plossl, seeing the large bluish stars first hand made quite at the time.
Quick capture on Jan 17th with 450D / ED80.
20x30sec stack @ ISO800 with single dark.
Stacked in DSS and tweaked in PS cs3.
Thanks for looking.
