Description

Decided to image the Coma star cluster in Coma Berenices, rather than the galaxy cluster, and I really like star clusters of all types. about 3.5 hours each night over two partly cloudy nights, first images since late December 2022, since our skies took a shine to the new friend Cloudy McCloudface.
Mind you, there are a lot of galaxies in the background of this image, given Coma Berenices is looking out away form the galactic plane.
