Astroman.

This is a nice shot that shows how this cluster actually looks visually in binoculars. The orange star looks great amoung the many blue stars of the cluster.
Well done!

That's a great shot Andrew! :thumbsup:

Nice widefield of the area. Coz I'm limited by the cameras I use I only ever get a close-up of Butterfly (and everything else). Nice to see it in its surrounds :)
