M44 and Vesta just

[Davey-T]

Had hoped to do a nice animation of Vesta circling through M44 but as usual the clouds had other ideas , only got two images so far so not very exciting 

Using DSLR and Canon 300mm f/4 on SW Star Adventurer, will try to do a better job of it if I get any more images.

First one on the 4th /12 and second one on the 12th, may get another one if the clouds go away, once it leaves the FOV with M44 in I've no chance of finding it, hard enough to find M44.

That's good that is Dave, shame about the clouds but what you've got is worth the time spent. Hope you get some more frames.

Very nice capture Dave.

Nicely done. It's good to see objects like Vesta getting some attention.
