Description

Messier 44 an open cluster right in the center of my birth sign cancer. Took me 4 years into that hobby until I visit it for the first time last week after a months long bad weather period in the region around Berlin and most parts of germany.

And I am very happy not just to capture that open cluster but also some faint background galaxies like NGC 2647 which is 736 Million lightyears away.
