M45-20090820
M45 is better known as the Pleiades or Seven Sisters from Greek mythology. The Japanese call it Subaru (ever notice the logo on their cars?).
The Pleiades are a relatively nearby cluster in the constellation Taurus at about 440 light-years...

M27 more-or-less as it appears in the eyepiece of my 8-inch Dobsonian from Brooklyn. Taken with an SBIG S7-7XE and a 120mm f/5 achromat through a photometric "V" filter.
