Is that DSLR noise I see? I took a few shots one night recently, at around 20c and the images were pretty much unusable, so much noise!
This is the Grus Quartet. The Gx to the right is NGC 7552 while the other 3 are NGCs 7582, 7590 and 7599. The three Gx's are easy to fit in the view with most scopes and a reasonable wide field EP while all four requires a TFOV of over 1 deg.
