Conditions were moderate: SQM-L = 21.2m/sec2. It was observed in my travel 14" 1:5 Dobson. The sketch was done by usual pensil on white paper and then processed (including inverting) in paint.net The cluster is great - more then 10 members were fixed in 11 mm Nagler field of view. Most interesting is pair of NGC 547/545.

George Abell's images were not likely better than your capture here.
