Description

I'm getting to this object late in the season for me given my observing area, so only had access to it for about 3 hours total.

The sky was clear but hazy,  with reports of the smoke from the fires our west influencing the conditions which did show up as a more pronounced gradient in the images that had to be removed in post processing.
