Default ASTRO: M35 & NGS 2158

My first M35 & NGC 2158.

Taken from my backyard obs. in Cakovec, Croatia (Europe).
Newton 200 mm F/5, Baader MPCC, EQ6 Synscan Pro.
Canon EOS350D, unmodded.
21 subexposures, total exposure 525 seconds.
8x25 sec @ ISO 800, 13 x 25 sec @ ISO 1600.

Beautiful shot, shows the age difference in the clusters. 2158 is one
of the few very old galactic clusters that has has enough gravity to
fend off the galaxy's tidal forces. By now, only older stars are left
while M35 still has a lot of young blue ones. I can't begin to fit M35
into my fov let alone both of them.

Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct.
Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh".
