Pleiades M45

Quite pleased with this. This was shot on a standard photographic tripod with a Nikon D7000 and a Nikon 18-200VRII at around 135mm. Max exposure with no trials was 2s so I shot 117 subs at 2s each at ISO6400. I added 30 darks to that and stacked the whole lot in Deep Sky Stacker, bit of a curves adjustment as this is what came out. Really surprised at how many stars were visible after the stacking.
