Description

M47 is an open cluster in the constellation of Puppis, most of which is not visible from the UK, with M47 itself barely reaching above 20 degrees altitude as it transits from my location. This image comprises just a handful of LRGB subs mostly shot at between 10-20 degrees altitude, so something of an horizon grazer.
