Description

I wasn't looking for anything in particular in this image I just wanted to try a single night mosaic in a dense star field.  I turns out there are 3 open clusters and a tiny planetary nebula in there: NGC 6834/6842/6846/6847.  This is my first attempt at a mosaic, not as difficult as I thought it might be.
