About this image

Quick shot trying to avoid Call the Midwife! Always a treat to look at this one - I just about made this out visually at low power through the LX200 10", the APO and SX694 did it justice with a single shot colour image. Have properly registered this image as next time will do some narrow band shots so wanted a decent base image to compare.
