First I wasn't even sure that I'm sketching the right object, this open cluster looked so insignificant to me for the first look, but after looking up images in a internet database about it, it became clear, that my time wasn't just wasted and I sketced the right thing. Around halfway between lambda and mu Per, a handful of stars, that can hardly be called bright, make up this cluster. On a magnification of 71x it looks as if there were two rings of stars that are bound to eachother. On 167x an almost regular hexagon is the most notable part of the cluster, made up of six stars of similar luminosity and colour, of magnitudes 12-13. Although not too spectacular, because of its easy location it might worth to search and take a look at it.

Awesome sketches! I love it! I was curious what size and what kind of eyepiece were you using with each sketch? I do see the magnification power with each sketch. Thanks - let me know, email address
