Open Cluster M103. Nothing particularly exciting, I enjoy imaging an open cluster from time to time.

I have attached a mid size image; full size image and exposure / processing details are at:
http://jthommes.com/Astro/m103.htm

Scope was a C8 at f/10; Camera was an Artemis 285

Total exposure time - a short 33 minutes.

Very nice color balance. It is the contrast between the blue and red star colors that always make this custer fun. You did a good job of showing that.
