M39 (LRGB) in Cygnus
Dear group,
A very impressive cluster is M39 in Cygnus lying about nine degrees southeast of Sadr. Battling 5 Beaufort winds, I did not expect very much with my final result. Although I was pleasantly surprised when all of the integrations were processed, a second visit will be required to nail pinpoint stars throughout the image. For those interested, last night's result based on two hours total exposure is available at http://www.perseus.gr/Astro-DSO-NGC-7092.htm . Clear skies (with no winds)! Anthony. |

Very nice as usual Anthony, although I think you meant to say lying about nine degrees northeast of Deneb? -- Pete http://www.digitalsky.org.uk |

That "coat hanger" got a little bent out of shape. :-o Thanks Anthony! Perhaps in a few years you will be publishing an excellent book! |

Thanks Pete ... for two reasons. Yes, I meant to say Deneb and not Sadr!! Anthony. |

Antoni,
A fine capture to say the least. And you say it still needs more work? Well OK, have at it. (Looks great just as it is.) Ben |
