Description

The rapid rise of clouds prevented me from completing a sufficient number of poses to obtain a better sky background in the image.

NGC 4337 was discovered by John Herschel on April 1, 1834.

NGC 4337 has a particularity : it is one of the few open clusters in the Milky Way's inner disk that has survived for so long.

We can see its apparent position in the constellation on the image that I published here :
