Description

This time, the spider chases the star clusters and not the fly.I chose this image section around IC 417 so that the surrounding star clusters M36/M38 fit on the image.
I was very impressed by NGC 1931 when creating the picture. It is always fascinating to look at such concentrated star formations. No less interesting is IC 417 with its diffuse dark nebula, which can also be found in the range of IC 405.I hope you like it, have fun watching...
