Hi All,
It's not often I image an open star cluster, but I like this one, so had to add it to the gallery.
Framing was tricky, I ended up using the internal guide chip rather than the external OAG one, still worked OK though. I should have taken more notice of the off-axis stars though.
Details of the shot and a bigger version on the website http://tinyurl.com/ygyl8fn
