The Pleiades - gotta catch 'em all!

The Pleiades, M45. Thought to be some 400 light years away.

I do like their names. Alcyone, Celaeno, Electra, Atlas, Merope, Asterope I & II, Taygeta, Maia, and Pleione.

ISO 1600, 1/2s

Can't take longer exposures currently. Haven't hooked up my battery to the motor that rotates the telescope.
