Description

M47 lives in a pretty busy neighbourhood! Given its very southern declination it never goes higher than 24deg of altitude from my backyard. I was dubious of the effectiveness of flat-fielding because of that (and because my southern horizon is pretty crummy as it is where the city lights are) but it turned out not too bad (but bad enough in the end to feel the need to mask it!).
