M45 Pleiades/ Subaru 12/26/11
Tried out a new configuration. Mounted my 40D with the 75-300mm telephoto lens into the ADM rings. Focus was a little tricky as was framing. I think also it was flexing the lens a little as the stars took on an odd shape. Still very pleased with the outcome. Got a lot of wispiness in there. I need to shoot some flats in this config but ran out of time and not sure if I set it up now it will work.
