I finally had a clear albeit windy night. I decided to shoot with my Whitecat 51 to minimize the chance for wind intereference. It was tough to figure out a good target, but I thought including both M56 and M57 in the same F.O.V. would be interesting. M57 is a lot smaller than I anticipated but it's there. M56 shows up better. and yes I know I have to clean my sensor....

Paraphrasing well-known about sales: "Flats solves all problems" )))  
F.O.V. is pretty good and flat. Hope you get a lot of fun with that combination.

I did use flats, darks and Bias frames for calibration yet still the dust spots remain.
