M 26 is a fairly compact cluster of moderately bright stars in Scutum.
Below is a combination of the two images above. This is an attempt to take the colour from the DSLR image and add it to the CCD image. The alignment worked well however the resulting colour is not as good as I would have liked. Still, it was an interesting exercise.
