NGC 884 Part of the Double Cluster
This is Part of the Double Cluster imaged during the moon phase so not the best conditions. I may make this a mosaic and capture the other half to complete it. Processing wise I have not really done much just stretched it and a bit of noise reduction and that's it a nice easy one.
