Explore the stellar wonder of Bogdan Jarzyna's "The Pleiades (M 45)"
Also known as the Seven Sisters, Messier 45 (M45) is an open star cluster containing middle-aged, hot B-type stars located in the constellation Taurus. As one of the nearest star clusters to Earth, the Pleiades is easily visible to the naked eye and is beloved by stargazers around the world.
This exquisite image captures the breathtaking beauty of the Pleiades. The cluster is approximately 444 light-years away and is surrounded by a blue nebula, which is captured in stunning detail in this photograph taken in the dark skies of the Bieszczady Mountains, Poland.
Interestingly, in Japanese, the Pleiades are called Subaru, which is the name and emblem inspiration for the famous car brand.
