The Other Winter Albireo and More!

It's warmed up nicely so I did some more observing and imaging last night and captured Iota Cancri, another blue and gold "Winter Albireo" that I learned of recently. Visually, it's not as bright as Albireo (considering the brighter of the two stars) or Almach (another blue/gold pair), and it's brighter than 145 G Canis Majoris (also known as the "Winter Albireo"). I posted a picture of each binary separately followed up with a composite of all four:
