Description

First attempt at a wide field image of the Perseus Galaxy Cluster. Used a small 81mm William Optics refactor with no field flattener. This pushed the limit of what a 81mm refactor can image.

Galaxies in the image are all around magnitude 12 or dimmer and around 100 arcsec in diameter.

Total size of the field is 60 by 43 arcmin, total exposure time was 86min.
