Auriga is full of goodies, and a whole bunch of them in one pic. here.

These widefield images are excellent teaching tools.

Another great result from your camera Kevin.

Some great stuff going on there, I hope I don't regret swapping over to my reflector for the next couple of months and missing out on these lovely wide fields!!

Hope you don't mind Kevin, rather than try and draw on yours, I'll use one I prepared earlier, in true Blue Peter Stylie... Mine is reversed, I guess as it was prime on a scope rather than a camera lens.

Thanks for that John I was looking for something smaller and I guess it's probablly more obvious visually as those stars will stand out.
