Good to have someone showing us these more obscure targets. I'm looking for ideas for a widefield mosaic and appreciate the pointers.

Thanks Rick. Some of the features would be worthy of follow up with a longer focal length. I normally map images within TheSkyX to determine framing of mosaics etc. Handy for long focal lengths to find a guide star. It would be great to see a larger mosaic of the area if you've the dark sky time. Thanks for checking it out.
