Summer Beehive

[MattJenko]

This was meant to be a tester for a new filter wheel and to get the spacing right before moving on to other targets, but given the weather of late, it is the only image I have managed in the last 6 weeks! Also done in a holiday cottage after a house move, so I should really consider myself lucky I got out under a clear sky at all.

50 x 60 sec each RGB, TS60ED, ASI1600M.

this is real nice Matt and great star control

I really like it when you imagers choose open clusters as Your Objects.

A lovely image and a lovely cluster.

A pretty tricky cluster to observe from up here, due to the Bright summer sky background.
