Description

This is an color image of open cluster M37 in the constellation Auriga. It is a beautiful visual target for small and medium telescopes. Through the eyepiece in a dark sky it looks like diamonds sprinkled against a black background. This was a test shot for the autoguider and also tried different gain/offset settings on the camera. Aside from color adjustment, no other processing was done.
