Jewel Box Cluster

SPX350 F4.53, ATK-16HR, OAG+Mintron guidecam, Astrodon filters.

My first autoguided image since last October and took me a while to remember what to do. My collimation seemed to be a bit off but not too bad, the brightest stars in this cluster can be seen in binocs but a miriad of fainter ones are shown throught he scope with some blue/orange colour. A very nice tight cluster.

RGB-16x3mins each.

Thanks, John.
