NGC206 (within M31)

[MikeD]

At a bit of a loss as to what to shot last night.

Decided to shoot M31 up close and NGC206 was the obvious choice for the centre of the FOV .

20 @ 5 mins luminence with my HX916 and 10" newt.

I could have gone for more data but I also wanted a go at a Jupiter animation turned out I should have just carried on with this as planetary seeing was not good last night.

Wow, that's truly amazing. When one cannot settle for simply imaging a DSO, you image an object within a DSO Great stuff

[Shibby]

Amazing image. Not enough star clusters in our own galaxy for you?

That's astonishing Mike... there is some lovely detail in the dust lanes.

Is that really a cluster in M31 or a line of sight?
