Coat-hanger Cluster Photos – Collinder 399 photos – Brochii’s Cluster photos

The Coathanger Cluster, or Collinder 399, or Brochii’s Cluster! An Asterism
with 10 stars ranging magnitude 5th to 7th make up the familiar shape of the Coathanger, in the Constellation of Vulpecula!
Find Cygnus The Northern Cross, then Look 8 degrees Southeast of the Double Star Albireo to find the Coathanger cluster, a very easy Binocular object even in the city! I capture it with my 5.5 inch F5 Newtonian Reflector Scope & modified Canon Rebel Xsi DSLR, ISo 800, 30 minute exposure. My Image was featured by NASA as the APOD!
