Hi all. My imaging has been pretty limited of late. The weather just won't cooperate. So, when it cleared last night, I had to try. Despite a very bright moon, I imaged three clusters, and they turned out OK. Here is the first..... M37.
Cheers,
Tyler

You really made that cluster come alive, Tyler. Great colors on the stars, even with such short times. I hope the weather stays better (it's pouring here...ah, Spring!)

Nice shot, Tyler! Where's the other two? smile I need to get my astro fix through the efforts of others because I can't remember the last time I saw a star.

M37 is one of my favorite OCs...
