That is a beautiful photo. I love the blue hue around the stars.
I have often seen the southern pleiades labled on star charts but never looked at it.
Again, beautiful photo.

like houghy i thought you were camera-less, looks like 3 all nighters coming up, just to tide you over with data till the next one arrives
