Hi all,

This is my very favorite star cluster and finally after seeing it for the first time over 30 years ago, I made an image of it. This was done with my ST2000 camera and the Mewlon 250 at prime focus.

Thanks!!

Good job, Paul! I don't think I've seen this cluster visually yet from my LP backyard.
