Hi everyone

Waiting for Leo to get it's act together last night, we thought we'd fill in with what looked in Kstars to be an attractive cluster pairing. I think underwhelmed is an overstatement. Where the second cluster is located, I've no idea.

Anyway, we used the time wisely to check collimation on the reflector which had survived a journey in a sling-over-the-shoulder style guitar case affair.

So here we have it. Hold your breath...

Hmm, an open cluster in a rich star field. Exciting. 😉 Still a very nice open cluster and a very nice star field. Lovely colours.
