This is an image of Pimis 4, an open cluster in the constellation of Vela, and the cluster is backed by part of the Vela supernova remnant.
The colour data was very dirty/noisy and not enough of it however; the weather has closed in, so it is what it is. There are some odd stars in the image which I think are due to my OAG encroaching too far into the field. It also looks like I processed it with a sledge hammer, I cannot seem to finesse the data into a nicer smoother image.
Yeah, yeah, you are all playing tiny violins for me! LOL!
