I've never been happy with my previous attempts at The Pleiades. Here is my latest attempt at M45 shot Sept. 27 2008 in the San Diego Mountains. 13 x 4 minutes using my Bader modified Canon 350d on an Astrotech 66mm with a WO .8x focal reducer II. I really like this Atech/WO/Canon Xt combination. Thanks, Henry

Nice image Henry, You have a pretty deep image as I can see some background nebula by the red star. It does look a tad dark for me but nice job anyway.
