Messier 35

Catalog: Messier 35 / NGC 2168

Constellation: Gemini

Telescope: 11-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain CPC

Camera: Canon Digital Rebel EOS SL1

Software: DeepSkyStacker (mine) and Adobe Photoshop (courtesy of my dad)

Exposure and ISO unknown; I took this picture way back in November and just now got around to posting it. Didn’t note down the details I should have.

An open star cluster. Mine doesn’t look much at all like the Wikipedia image…perhaps because it was shot through a high-power ‘scope, which can’t necessarily catch the entire open cluster? Could also just be that I’m a complete newbie.
