Messier 35 Star Cluster in The Constellation of Gemini 2019-02-25.

Aberkenfig, South Wales

Lat +51.542 Long -3.593

 

Skywatcher 254mm Newtonian Reflector, Olympus E410 at prime focus. EQ6 Syntrek Mount.

 

19 light frames of 30s at 800 ISO. Also 10 dark frames.

 

Processed with Deep Sky Stacker and final levels adjusted with G.I.M.P.

 

An open star cluster located in the constellation of Gemini. The camera's imaging chip just about framing this capture.

 

The image displays coma towards the edges. This is is one drawback of a parabolic f/4.8 Newtonian.
