Description

My field of view is quite small with the 10 inch RC and I have not figured out a way to put my ED80CF on the mount yet. So I can only get a small portion of the Pleiades. Merope is nice area and I was happy to see that i captured a good bit of the red in the outer part of the big brush stroke of mostly blue. I am hoping that during these months when the weather can be bad to get a wider field scope piggybacked on the 10 in. But then I might have to get another camera too
