Description

Started off trying to image M33 Triangulum Galaxy with a new autoguiding setup for my Skyguider Pro. Technical issues killed that attempt. Decided to salvage the night with Pleiades that had risen by the time I gave up on the autoguide setup.

Happy to not have blown the night and got this capture. Final image is a 60 minute integration of 60 1-minute long exposures at f/5.6 ISO 800. this was also the first time I used an adapter to attach a canon 100-400 lens to my Fujifilm X-T20 mirrorless camera. Worked very well and no issues there!
