Actually planned as a test of the modified Star Adventurer Wedge. I modified some small details as described here: https://www.cloudynights.com/topic/604284-my-star-adventurer-wedge-modifications/ Especially the new washer for the Alt section made my wedge more stable and reduced the side to side movement while turning the Alt knob.
However, the image shows the region between Perseus and Camelopardalis which does not seem to be photographed very often although a lot of open clusters can be discovered. On the right side is the Alpha Persei Cluster which is a moving cluster and is only 601 light years away from earth. The age is about 50-70 million years. On the left side there is the asterism Kemble's Cascade which is a straight line of more than 20 stars and the open cluster NGC 1502 at the end. The well known Soul Nebula (IC 1848) is in the upper area of the image. Some more clusters and faint nebulas can be discovered in the middle of the image.
