Description

Tonight like the past two nights I had a very bright almost full Moon to contend with. I decided

before I went outside that I would image some open clusters because I felt that the Moon

would not affect them as much as some other type object. I made a list of 25 open clusters

to search for. However as it turned out a lot of the clusters on the list were not in season.

NGC 1807 and NGC 1817 were visible. I've never viewed these clusters through an eye piece

or imaged these clusters. Please enjoy my first image of NGC 1807 and NGC 1817.
