Details:
Wide angle views of a selection of open clusters in Taurus and Orion last night. A big problem with DSOs from the indoors window-sill is finding them given the limited field of view, and last night, the bright moonlight. No chance of nebulae or galaxies with the moonlight, but open clusters are very appropriate, as long as they could be located. Here is where my newly acquired small goto mount came into its own! These clusters are little-known and quite obscure, but I particularly liked the "Poor Man's double cluster".
