Hi all. Here is my latest image.

http://tinyurl.com/ywu2ow

It is the Double Cluster in Perseus, in LRGB, taken with my Tak E160 and ST2000XM with Astrodons. I hope you like it. Comments and/or suggestions are always welcome.
Cheers,
Tyler

Beautiful, Tyler! I have some data on these objects from (believe it or not!) two years ago. I really need to process them to see how they turn out.

Tyler,
I have rarely seen clusters captured with such clarity and beauty. That rig of yours is truly a "stellar" performer (I'll give the operator some credit, too, of course wink ).
What were your subs BTW?
