The Moon is 11.8 days past new and high and bright in the sky. Not a good time for wide-field astrophotography.
E-M5iii + Orion 80mmED f/7.5. ISO 200, 1/1000 s.
Messier 41 (M41) is an open cluster about 4° south of Sirius. It is about 2300 ly distant and has an apparent size slightly larger than the full moon. The faintest stars visible in this image are between magnitude 14 and 15. The scope was riding on a Celestron CG-4 motorized mount, unguided.
