NGC7789 (Open Cluster, in Cassiopeia)

Lying between two double stars - Rho CAS and Sigma CAS, this open cluster is very easy to locate. It lies almost exactly in the middle of the line joining the double stars. I could easily identify the density of stars but could not draw a boundary to the cluster. The region is rich with faint stars.

Very rich cluster that could not be fully resolved. As a result, the cluster displayed a faint glow on which many stars were embedded, making for a superb sight. The background glow seemed to resemble a man holding his arms up!

A soft rounded glow of light that seemed very ghostly in the rich starfields of the queen. It is easy to find and well worth a look but it's soft light may not be able to cope with severe light pollution.

This cluster is superbly rich and fills the field at medium power. This has to be one of my favourite objects as countless stars are splashed over the entire view.

A large, dim glow, between two pretty pairs of stars about 3 degrees apart. The glow itself was roughly 3/4 degree in extent. Swept up without reference to charts in my "Milky Way bug hunt," then confirmed later.
