First try at Double Cluster

[Bigwings]

Please dont mock the humble egg, its a days work for a hen...

Well this is my best sub from a set taken last night of the Double Cluster. I seem to have a vibration problem on the mount as there is elongation on all the others or perhaps its not tracking properly.

When I learn to stack images I will give it a try.

For a single sub this is an excellent result. Good round stars and colour, stacking more subs, of a similar quality, will produce an impressive combined image. If you haven't already done so, take a look at Deep Sky Stacker (DSS), it's free and easy to use and has reasonable help files to get you going. Well done.
