Exposure: 20 x 12 sec Luminance Exposure with IR Block. 16 x 12 sec RGB Exposures.

This was an unguided exposure done with a relatively bright moon. I wanted to expose a few more open clusters. This cluster is small but interesting with some reds and blues mixed in the
star field. Horizontal FOV is 23'
