Hi all,
This is a more in depth close up with the venerable 12.5" f/5 on the very
center of the huge open cluster M44 - The Bee Hive cluster in Cancer. This
central area is of great interest as both a colorful photographic target with
its golden and blue gem like bright stars, and for visual observers for the
sprinkling of numerous faint (and I mean FAINT) galaxies in this field. If you
have looked at any of these galaxies in the telescope, I would like to hear of
your observations for a possible article.
