M52, NGC 7635 & NGC 7538

[Deneb]

Hi

I took this widefield shot last night with my WO setup of M52 - The Scorpion Cluster, NGC 7635 - The Bubble Nebula & NGC 7538 - Emission Nebula. There is a Cluster upper right of the image, but I do not what it is ! I was trying for 2min subs, but found out apart from being windy at times, I had some Star Trailing (dodgy polar scope Reticle). Anyway, 8 x 1min Subs, No darks & 5 Flats. Processed in DSS,PS & GXterminator used.

Very nice widefield!

Nice one, that area is one of my favourites

TheSky suggests that the other cluster is NGC 7510

Good work Nadeem. A really nice FOV you have there in this shot, and nice composition too.

I think has come out really well with 1 minute shots, shame you didnt manage the 2 minute shots.

Have you tried the Iterative method for polar aligning? You should easily get 2 minute shots doing that.

Thanks Arran, PMed you.

Lovely rich starfield Nadeem
