I took this eyepiece projection shot of Atlas (27 Tauri), the second brightest star in the Pleiades, as it emerged from lunar occultation on 2006/4/1 using a 17" f/15 classical Cassegrain and my Canon EOS Digital Rebel DSLR camera. The location was the Astronomical Society of Harrisburg's Naylor Observatory near Lewisberry, Pennsylvania.
