New image: Double Cluster in Perseus

Taken from my backyard in November 2008 I just now got around to processing the raw images. Wow the Canon 40D has low noise, yeah I was only doing two minute sub-exposures at 2-3°C ambient. Which I consider near ideal imaging temperature for my cameras and me. Surprisingly little light pollution gradient in the photograph so I didn’t even bother to try and remove it.  But also, as usual, I imaged the target in the optimum location of the sky for my spot.
