Tale of Two Clusters

I want to post my drawing about two clusters.

Object: VdB-Ha 23 – NGC 2546
Constellation: Puppis
Date: 06. 04. 2010.
Time: 19:07-20:20 UTC
Location: 27 m above sea level next to Kalo Nero, SE Crete, Greece, EU
Instrument: 60/200 Akr., 20 mm Plossl (10x magn.)
Limiting magnitude: better than 6.5

From 2 to 10 april, 2010 have we three amateur astronomers were at Crete to observe the southern deep-sky objects. This is my best sketch. In the middle is the VdB-23 cluster, and right is the NGC 2546.

  1. One wide and open and the other tight and close, very nice sight and a very nice sketch.
