Starry starry night

Clear skies tonight and so I thought I'd try a shot of some stars.

This was almost overhead at 3am and is a part of the Milky Way between Perseus and Cassiopia including the double cluster just above and right of centre. Only the brighter stars are visible to the naked eye. I pushed the exposure to reveal the fainter ones.

It took a bit of post processing to darken the background because of the light pollution we get here.
