Description

Having the opportunity to image from B1 skies I decided to increase the difficulty factor go  for a faint Southern Galaxy Cluster I stumbled across visually.This image looks similar to what I viewed at 282x using the 9mm Nagler eye piece.
The wind was the big issue so I culled 1000 images  and I must not  of controlled the light  from the lap top which gave halos around the brightest stars.  This could well be the last image I post using the Servocat  /Alt Az mode . So I'm thankful  for the chance to do so.

Here  is a link  from a friends article on this distant Galaxy Cluster .
