Messier 44 the Bee Hive cluster. Taken 19/03/11 under the full Super Moon. 11 lights at 2 mins ISO 1600 and 11 darks. I had to work DSS a little more than usual to get it usable in PS6. The blue halos were reduced a bit but with the added diffraction spikes I quite like them, sort of glitzy. Maybe not to everyone's taste though. The scope was a celestron 102mm f/4.9 Achro.
