M55

Just M55. There's some nice coloured stars in this cluster that are tricky to bring out. I hope I haven't murdered it too much.

I can also count half a dozen reasons why I shouldn't image at sunset, some being the phone always ringing, traffic vibration, air turbulence, high temps (I imaged this at a noisy 23C even in "winter"), the cats Orion and Rigel being total maniacs and the neighbour's lights.

Anyway enough with the excuses, Skywatcher ED100 at F9 poked out the window about 100 minutes of subs of various lengths, Pentax K-5.
