Hi Roger,

another nice deep deep sky image. Congrats.

At a quick look with STAR Atlas-PRO the faintest objects are easily Magnitude 19 !

I marked one of them with an arrow in the attached image, the object is GSC2 S232231311602 at J. Mag. 19.03.

I've also attached a screen shot from STAR Atlas PRO that shows the area you imaged.

Your images remind me of those I did when I was using my Cookbook CCD on my 8" telescope.
