Happy Holidays to all the Ugly Hedgehogers!

Been a while since getting out, I took this from the desert, it was ~900 x 60 second images. Shot with a Canon t3i (modified), 135 mm Rokinon at f/4. Used a SkyGuider Pro. It’s been so long that I forgot how to process. I did a lot (probably too much) cleaning up to remove the walking noise, but without zooming in, it looks pretty good.

I hope everyone has a great New Year!

I think it's pretty awesome Brian , you brought some good nebulosity out of the 7 Sisters . I was going to try but, doesn't fit my camera angle .

It looks like you've pulled in very faint nebulosity around the main star cluster. Nice. I'm also impressed you got 60 second subs with the Sky Guider Pro. I recently purchased one and tried it out on the Horsehead @30 sec. My stars were still pinpoints, so going to 60 sec gives me hope the SGP is even better than I thought. Oh I forgot I was using a 400mm lens instead of 135mm. Good job.

Nice shot. Really brought out the Nebula around the cluster.
