    Notes: First image in a while without my Astronomik clip-in filter. Wanted to see how I could do without it. Needed a target near zenith considering I live in orange/red, and the Double Cluster fit the bill nicely. Didn't expect to have an image worth producing, but my tracking was good and everything from a mount control perspective was behaving.
