About this image

A quick look at T CrB.  Was planning a spectrum but it got very foggy very quickly after this image!  Maybe next time...

Still at mag 10 so no sign of an outburst just yet...

Field ~ 20 x 20 arc minutes, north up.  A smaller field than my last image on 6th March using iTelescope T5.
