A flat wide field - Double cluster

Hi All,

I had to wait a couple of hours 2 nights ago for my target to get into optimal ascention, so I killed some time doing this shot.

The shot gives a really good demonstration of how large and flat the field is with the FSQ/11000 combo. Silently and perfectly milling away is the star of the show - my new AP900. I can't thank Roland enough for putting out such an incredibly well engineered product. The mount is a masterpiece.

Please look here for a 100% crop and details of the shot:

Hi Jose --

Beautiful image! Thanks. It's tha only image of the double cluster I've ever seen which includes a star cascade leading to/from it (lower part of your image). I've enjoyed the cascade every time I've pointed my binoculars to that part of the sky.
