I like clusters (open or globular) that have a Milky Way background. These two open clusters NGC6883 and NGC6871 are in Cygnus (just below the Crescent nebula region) and they sit in the middle of a load of faint emission nebulosity. 22 subs at 5-minutes per sub on the Hyperstar III using the M25C 6-Megapixel one-shot colour camera.
