Description

Normally I am not very often into open clusters.

But I guess that is a mistake.

In my eyes they are the most underestimated objects, but they have something special.

Especially the different star colors in combination with foreground stars, even if the cluster does not show any nebulae.

I like this one very much, because the name really matches the first impression.

Hope you like it, too!
