Is this the scorpion?

[Kaptain Klevtsov]

Set up tonight amidst loads of clouds which looked like they were going away, did a goto alignment on Vega (Suzanne to me, we're mates) and left the sky to go dark. Shed closed up in case of rain. After feeding time I went back out again to slightly more clouds and was disappointed to find that M33 was in a tree and lots of other potential targets on my list were behind clouds. I picked the Scorpion as that best fitted my previously selected FOV and slewed there via Starry Night Pro. Here is what came out:-

I don't think that I was pointed in the right direction as this looks nothing like the starry Night Pro version of the same FOV. Anybody care to guess what I was aimed at?

Not sure if its also called the Scorpion but it is M39 you have imaged

M52 is the Scorpion, so I was off by more than a little bit. Looks similar with Starry Night so I need to rename a folder

Thanks AS2, I'd never have found that myself.
