Zoom into Pleiades

Abundant clouds and filaments of gas in this close up of the Pleiades, concentrated on Alcyone (the brightest star middle left). I wish I had kept Alcyone smaller (it looks a little bloated) but I am pleased with the filaments and structure (and I've run out of time to keep fiddling with it).
