Description

Often this is imaged with its NGC 869 partner, but for a change I thought I would go for a close-up. I was not sure whether this would work too well, but I am happy with the result. This was 97 subs at 2 minutes long each, totalling an imaging time of 3 hours and 14 minutes, with a very bright moon nearby. Have a good night everyone...
