Here is the Pleiades, M45. I haven't shot this in a while so I thought I'd have another go. Both the reflection and emission components turned out well. The reflection discs from the blue filter are seen around the brighter stars -- I did not try to fix these. I don't they distract anyway.

Beautiful shot Tom! I just love this object. I agree that there is no need to fix the disks... the image is lovely.
