George Greaney obtained this great color image of the Pleiades open star cluster and its associated reflection nebulae.
This image is a digital composite of four 50-minute exposures on hypered 120 Fuji SHG400. The four original 6X7 negatives were scanned at 2000 dpi using a Polaroid Sprintscan 45. They were then merged using Picture Window 2.0, the resulting composite image was digitally enhanced in Photoshop 5.0. - More images by George Greaney
