Looking at the full size it seems to be full of multicolored hot pixels ;)
I thought cassiopeia was only 5 stars, well from london anyway :cheesy:

Nice to see your deep sky survey is coming along nicely.

For your next challenge, you should post the photo without the annotations and see how many correctly guess the area.

Very nice image.
