M44 Beehive cluster

NikonD5300

Nikon 300mm f4.5 @ f8 (free lens, not ED so lots of chromatic aberation, plus had to stop down to f8 due to it not focusing to infinity without the added depth of field. At least I had NO vignetting at f8 :))

Ioptron Skytracker V2

ISO 800

90@ 90 seconds (2.25 hours)

no flats, no darks

Stacked in Sequator PP in PS/LR

35F, higher humidity tonight, no wind

There are some tiny galaxies just visible if you know where to look.

Done
