Description

From my backyard, trying out the Meade 350mm on some star clusters.

Sh2-188 is the small reddish planetary nebula.

NGC 457 is aka the Owl Cluster, for the shape of an owl with two large eyes and the cluster of smaller stars for its body, wings and feet.

NGC 581 is very small in the upper right, aka Messier 103
