Photo description / processing

My first photo of M45 "The Pleiades" that's actually worth looking at) The Pleiades (M45, also known as the Seven Sisters or Subaru) is an open star cluster and asterism in the constellation Taurus. This cluster is one of the closest to Earth and one of the brightest star clusters. The Pleiades have been known since ancient times and are visible to the naked eye even in urban skies. The cluster and its brightest stars are named after the Pleiades, nymphs from Greek mythology.
