Subaru

Post by rcj »

Been a while since I'd last gotten a half-decent image. Here's the ever popular Subaru, Pleiades, Seven Sisters, M45.... taken from the recent Punggai expedition (last weekend). Conditions wasn't ideal, with haze and mist... but glad this was taken with my pier setup which gave the setup a lower profile, more portability, and still just as stable as the G11 tripod.

Hi,
Nice!! [smilie=good-job.gif]

Anyway, I notice there are some common "feature" on four of the brightest stars... just wonder is it part of the original nebula?? [smilie=confused.gif]

Have a nice day.
