NGC7380 - The Wizard Nebula

Recommended Posts

Here's the open star cluster NGC7380 surrounded by the Wizard Nebula in Cepheus from last night. Captured using my new screw in SCT T adapter for the first time. 

Captured with NINA, guided with PHD2 and processed this morning in PixInsight. 46 (from 57) x 240 sec lights.  -10°C 125 gain. 30 darks (from library), 30 flats, 30 dark flats.

I was happy with the collimation adjustments before I started, I had a 4" total PA error and good focus. But there is still an odd shape stars thing going on to the right of the image. Could differential flexure be the culprit?
