Open Clusters in Canis Major

I have a few more open clusters in the Canis Major area. I have attached a mid sized thumbnail of NGC 2383 and NGC 2384. A full-size image and exposure / processing details can be seen at:

Another open cluster I did last year and have recently re-imaged this month is NGC 2360. A full size image and exposure / processing details of the recent image can be seen at:

Awesome shots Jim!
Question: you might have mentioned this earlier, but I'm turning 40 soon, and my memory is starting to have hiccups... ... how do you reach f/2.8 in your f/10 C8? Fastar?


Thanks for sharing!

Jim,
I'm beginning to think you're working on your own All Sky Survey! Please keep them coming.
