Description

Ptolemy Cluster

Easily visible with the naked eye this star cluster in Scorpius is a charm to watch. It was a joy to watch through my binoculars in a dark site while my telescope was taking the images 

I think the two dark nebulae B283 and B287 in the FOV make this image more pleasant to watch and more interesting
