This is my first shot of NGC281. I attempted it a couple of years back, but came up essentially empty.
Normally, the Casseiopeia Milky Way is not available until autumn, but I was up really really late, so I decided to give this target a go.
I only got 4 subframes (20m each, 1h 20m total) before the sun came up.
This object deserves more attention, but I will have to wait a few months before it’s in prime shooting position.
