M46 And NGC 2438

Recommended Posts

After Moon set this morning DSO's really popped out. Even the weather was ideal despite being -5C there was no wind and virtually no dewing problems.

I obtained this image of the open cluster M46 and photobombing planetary nebula NGC 2438 using my NIKON 3200 DSLR at prime focus of  a Skywatcher 400P driven Dobsonian f4.8 Newtonian. 1600ISO 10sec exposure.

Sobering to think  we are a lot closer to NGC 2438 than any of the cluster members!
