Hi Everyone,
Was playing around with my rig this past weekend at my club's dark site. Unfortunately due to problems with my guider setup, I ended up only taking unguided shots. Noticing that the Double Cluster was high up, I thought I give it a try.
Canon XTi (unmodified) on a AT 8" Newt F4 - ISO 400 - 8 60 second subs w/ darks - Sphinx SXW - Processed/stacked using Images Plus and Photoshop.
Comments and suggestions are welcomed.

Nice shot and framing - one of my favorite targets. Maybe push the saturation a bit for more star color? Might be some head room there to bring out the yellows.
