Hi all
Here's an image of a nice open cluster in Norma, NGC6067.
It was captured on the 15th March, and consists of 12x 240s exposures. Darks were ICNR, and flats were calibrated in ImagesPlus.
Unmodded Canon 350D + ED80 + WO 0.8x reducer. Guided with PHD + DMK.
I'm quite happy with how it turned out, giving some nice star colours and a lovely rich starfield looking towards the plane of the milkyway. I framed the shot so that the dark nebula on the left balanced the star cluster on the right.
Attached is an 800px wide version - a better, 1200px wide less compressed version is here:
