NGC457 Owl Cluster

[BlueAstra]

This was taken last night after messing around with collimation and the Baader focusser. Still not got it to autofocus correctly, it generates a V curve but slips when it goes to the optimum position. Think I have to somehow tension the Crayford. This is 6x300s RGB (1x1), with a nearby almost full moon. Thanks for looking.

Thank you for that lovely image , this was my intended target for the night before Orion arose but things were obscured before I got to set-up .

Next time . . .

Steve.

Nice image in difficult conditions - well done

A lovely little cluster this one and you have imaged and processed it very well considering the near full moon. I was imaging H-alpha last night and was struggling with internal reflections and gave up, so once again very well done!

Wonderful shot. This is my favourite open cluster in Cassiopeia.

That's a great image, lovely star colour.
