November 01 2009 Perseus Double Cluster

The double cluster in Perseus is one of my favourite objects in the night sky. It is an easy binocular target, but through a telescope the view is amazing. In my 8 inch f/5 reflector it fills all the FOV of my 25mm eyepiece. The contrast between the orange and whitish-blue stars is great. This one was a quickie, I'll definitely revisit this one! SkyViewPro 8" f/5 Lights: 12x30s ISO 800 Darks: 20x30s ISO 800 Processed in Nebulosity 2 and CS4. André Gonçalves http://astro-andregoncalves.blogspot.com/
