Description

Continuing to post images since I just started uploading again a week or so ago, this was first light on my Astro-Physics 1100GTO AE. Perhaps a little weird making it first with a 90mm refractor, but in a permanent backyard observatory, I just leave the Fra 500 sitting on the Edge HD11 and pick and choose which scope for which night an project. I really loved how this one turned out from the FOV, star clusters, Hubble's Variable Nebula and dark dust lanes all within the image:
