Description

I am pleased with this image. Not only does it clearly show the "owl" face, but also some distance galaxies, and even a couple quasars!

The first quasar is [VV2006] J111504.4+550143 in the Simbad database. Click this link for more information and to identify it in my image.

The second quasar is SDSS J111536.06+550311.8 in the Simbad database. Click this link for more information and to identify it in my image.
