Description

I shot this while I had an hour before my primary target for the night was to rise, the odd galaxy NGC 3227.   I didn't want to waste a minute of precious dark sky time just waiting, so here's M35.  The colors and variety in star clusters are beautiful whether observed photographically or visually, and is a decent use of the margins of available time in a dark night.
