The Pleiades (Messier 45) is one of my all-time favorites. This is my 4th attempt at photographing this beautiful asterism. My first try was over 10 years ago on October 24, 2013 with much different equipment, skill, and patience. I'm glad to say the results are improved and look forward to my next attempt!
