Description

Melotte 15, imaged during one night from astronomical dusk till dawn. I went a bit overboard with the processing which resulted in some artifacts, but the overall look (colours & contrast) are now what I was after. Better try next time .

The weather conditions were not very favourable with gusty winds and occasional high clouds. All frames were shot unguided with some tracking imperfections.
