Could almost miss it if I wasn't looking for it. Orange with hints of red.

So faint. I had a hard time finding it. AV helped keep it in view, otherwise it would pop in and out of view. Very deep red.

[1] V Cygni (ID)

Faint, hard to resolve individual stars. Brighter in the center. Zooming in to 100x didn't help much.

I didn't want to go in for the night, as it was too peaceful and beautiful. My eyes found a bright patch SW of Cassiopeia and I turned the scope to it. Two beautiful clusters right next to one another. Turns out it was the Perseus Double Cluster, I'll have to add this to my list of favorites.

[1] NGC 884, Double Cluster with 869 (ID)

[2] Open Cluster (ID)

11:12PM

Could see two of the cloud bands and four of the moons.
