Mowed the Lawn, sailed a boat and entertained seven sisters.

Decided to take a different tack in my astrophotography. Normally I hit on DSO's with nebulosity but with my worsening local LP I thought I might do better with clusters.

So with an 89% moon to compound the problem I selected 60 sec exposures. Canon XS astro modded ISO 800 on an 80 ED f 7.5. Guiding on AVX mount. No filters.

NGC 663 Lawn Mower cluster. 93 minutes.

NGC 225 Sail Boat cluster 60 minutes.

M 45 30 minutes for fun...

None of these are wonderful but considering the conditions I was well chuffed.
