Here is M38, the second of three clusters that I imaged a few nights ago, under a very bright moon.
Cheers,
Tyler

Cool! It looks like you are retaining the star color while overlaying the L frame. Some time ago Robert Gendler told me not to use a L frame with clusters but I noticed that he started to late in 2004. Things are always changing.

I can't wait for your third image smile

I saw a star last night but by the time I walked downstairs to get my laptop and went outside to the observatory it closed in and was raining within 30 minutes. :S
