Took this image the other night. First time I have ever taken an image of the Pleiades. Its LRGB 30:15:15:15 at 2 min subs through ED80 with DSI III Pro - guided.

PS for curves, levels (Carboni's tools for star bloat reduction)

Very nice - love this cluster. I'd push those subs a bit longer to help catch more dust/nebulosity.

A nice capture, the nebulosity is starting to show through and is looking good.

Thanks Ric / Troy. Yes, I realise now how faint this thing is and how much deeper I need to go.

Looks good.

More exposure will turn it into a great image.
