Open cluster NGC2516

My target list for summer will be easy targets that I can capture quick, pretty open clusters like NGC2516 in Carina. Nothing particularly deep, the heat and clouds won't allow it, just something that looks pretty with different coloured stars. I hope they don't look all too "samey". I'll have to find ways to spice them up a bit. There's certainly lots of candidates up there.

8" F4 Bintel Newt, 51 x 30 seconds, Pentax K-5.
