I have posted 3 images in this set: the one you see, which is annotated, a zoomed version focused on NGC 7814, and an even more zoomed version centered on a small grouping of objects which look vaguely like a gravity-lens cluster. But I could not find a gravity-lens catalog to check that possibility. Does anyone know if and where such a catalog exists? [Found a list, and this was not on it, but...]

This is a rather dusty part of the sky...at least I hope that's what it is and it's not indicating some bad juju in my image processing !.

Description: Unusual "cluster" of things--resembles a gravity lens (but a little too fuzzy, maybe). Lies just above NGC 7814's right wing.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
