The Hyades star cluster with orange Aldebaran taken in a moonlit sky and with light haze softening the stars and adding the haloes. The star cluster NGC 1647 is at upper left. The colourful double star Theta 1 and 2 Tauri is at lower centre.

This is a stack of 8 x 2-minute exposures at ISO 800 with the Canon R6, and the little Askar 230 astrograph at f/5.5. Autoguided with the MGEN3 guider. Diffraction spikes added with PhotoKemi StarTools actions.
