Description

Again, insufficient integration time, but anyway, here you are with the Christmas Tree Cluster. The image is noisy as I failed to dither regularly in PHD because the wide field photo of Auriga was taken in parallel piggybacked on the main scope with 60 second exposures while the exposure time for the Cluster image was 120 sec, though with the same interval of 20 seconds within which the mount can be instructed to dither. No calibration.
