Berkeley 10, just abov3 center and to the right, is a trumpler (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trumpler_classification) class II 2 m (II 3 p in 1966) open cluster located approximately 7,469 light-years away in Camelopardalis. A recent study can be found here - http://articles.adsabs.harvard.edu/pdf/ ... ..32...59L.

Luminance – 24x300s – binned 1x1 – 120 minutes
RGB – 8x180s – 24 minutes each – binned 2x2

182 minutes total exposure – 3 hours 2 minutes

Imaged October 12th and November 11th, 2020 from Dark Sky New Mexico at Rancho Hidalgo (Animas, New Mexico) with a SBIG STF-8300M on an Astro-Tech AT12RCT at f/8 2432mm.

Hi Dan. A beautiful Berkeley 10 image, and it really jumps out on the flickr site version. Very nice contrast and pinpoint stars in your capture. Thanks for sharing this with us on here Dan, and congratulations on having your NGC 1291 ring galaxy image selected and printed in the June, 2021 Astronomy Magazine.

Thanks for looking.

I actually also have another image in that issue as well in the article about nebulae.

Hi Dan. I found your other great image, this time of the Robin's Egg Planetary Nebula (NGC 1360) and neighbor (NGC 1398) on page 52 of the June, 2021 Astronomy Magazine. I have only had the magazine for about a week and am still catching up on my reading. Congratulations again Dan, and keep up your excellent work. :clap:
