While I was waiting for the Orion Nebula to cross the meridian to the correct side of the mount I had a go at the Pleiades. All I wanted at the time was to see if I could capture the nebulosity around the stars as I've never managed it before. This one should also benefit from another attempt with a mix of long and short exposures.
Canon 550D with Sigma 150-600mm lens (I love this lens (y))

I reckon that data could easily withstand some more stretches to bring out some more of the nebulosity ..... :) Good on you for catching it as well :)

Thank you Sara. I probably could bring a bit more out, but at the expense of the background. I do like a nice tidy dark background. I may get a bit more out with Pixinsight which I've just downloaded. My partner's been chucking my images over to me with very little done, and I'm not 100% certain what he has done.
 
Excellent, I love that (y)
