Hi all,
Here is the final image from my shooting spree up in Happy Jack, a nested
pair of star clusters in Canis Major which rides high early on March
evenings in the south.  This cluster is so huge that I have never
photographed it to its best advantage but here, I can now fit it perfectly
in the 2.5 degree field of my Orion Astrograph.  It is a plethora of
stunning colors and sparkle!  You might be interested that Steve Coe has a
catalog of huge open clusters, that currently consists of 2 objects.  Ask
him about that one some time...

Thanks for Looking,



Chris
