Image from February that I have just got around to processing but it's one of Ivor's observing challenges this month (Alcor / Mizar double) so thought I would post it. :)

Thank you for your comments. I must admit I thought I had left too many stars in the image and felt that the constellation didn't 'pop'. So your comments have helped alleviate that worry.

Ivor - I love getting the observing report by email. Great step.
