OK, this is the last post in this series of 'old hat boring objects'

I promise
I wanted to take a longer exposure of the surrounding area to see what I could see, see how many of those thousands of stars I could bring out and if there was any interesting dust patterns etc. I'm happy with the result.
I also took 60 second exposures to show more detail in the Jewel Box its self, that is linked to from the description of this image.
Interestingly I also have linked to, a comparison shot of 120 second exposures from my LX200.

All in all, another pleasing set of images but nothing ground breaking.
