Messier 45 - The Pleiades - DSLR image
On Saturday 23rd November 2019 with a clear night, I imaged the Pleiades, Messier 45 using my unmodified Canon 40D with my Redcat 250mm lens/telescope. The first image was taken at 20:51 Local Time which was 19:49 Universal Time. I took 10 exposures of 30 seconds each and then aligned and combined them in Nebulosity 4. I then saved the file as a TIFF file and processed it in Photoshop CC. The size of the image is 5 degrees 9 minutes by 3 degrees 25 minutes. The scale of the image is 4.73arcseconds per pixel with 3512 x 2598 pixels.
