About this image

My second attempt to compare these two star clusters after a week earlier when stray moonlight interfered with my first attempt.   I wanted to capture comparable data on the same night in comparable conditions, which I have managed this time.  This is a low resolution image but the high resolution version can be seen on my Flickr account - the link is https://flic.kr/p/2ngwDnU
