Description

First attempt at M44, maybe not the greatest image in the world, but I'm happy due to what seems to be an increase in light pollution in my local area.  Finding it harder to do decent broadband images with the FSQ85, probably due to the wider field of view.  May have to stick to using longer focal lengths from this area for now.
