I'll wait for Greg to correct me on the naming of this cluster, I just know it as "the double cluster in Cass".
There are several issues with this. Firstly I only used Light frames and didn't subtract darks or flats. Mainly because the clouds crept in and I was totally numb because I'd forgotten my gloves. There's lots of rotation on the left of frame, I think this is because I used two sets of images, and I hadn't alligned the camera correctly on the second attempt, correct me on this Greg but I seemed to have a rather good allignment that let me shoot up to two minutes with no trails which leads me to beleive that its not an allignment issue. Last thing (I think) Is better focus, and better collimation. I collimated my scope a couple of days ago, but it hadn't taken any bumps so thought that'd be ok, apparently not. Again, Greg any advice will be absorbed like a sponge!!
Also, K, before you kick my ass for being over critical, I'm seeking advice for improvement
Also, anyone that hasn't checked out 's gallery yet, please do. He rocks the space shots a lot better than most, but he's not limited to them (hope that makes up for the request for advice!! )
Thanks guys.

59 Lights at 45 seconds @ ISO 800
