Description

AKA NGC 5272. This star cluster is in the constellation Canes Venatici and ~32,600 lights years from earth.  The storms moved out with the clouds as forecasted but, then some fog moved in until the front totally passed and the drier winds picked up just enough to blow the fog out. Almost picked it up for the night but, some patience paid off. While not perfect..not bad.
