Title: NGC7789
Post by: JohnP on Aug 12, 2007, 19:20:20
Played around with mount last night whilst Meteor watching.. No real serious imaging. I actually came across this almost by accident - just doing some goto's to objects I hadn't seen before. Couldn't believe the amount of stars in this cluster so grabbed 15 X 45 secs of L...

Cheers,  John.

I think it is one of the largest clusters in the sky, John. It's a surprise to come across something unexpected.

definitely worth a look at if you are in the cassiopeia area... FOV approx 20x15 arcmins.... John

Nice image John,

just wondered would you get a wider field image with say your canon.
