Photo description / processing

Here's what you get when you photograph the Pleiades with a three-legged spider on a Newtonian telescope ) The first shot in a new life, under Serbian skies. I must say, shooting in the mountains at an altitude of 1100m with Bortle 3 skies is addictive. I'll definitely do it again this year.
