Area with double star cluster h and c Persei
Date: 06 September 1996, 23.00h CEST Lens: f=135 mm, f/1.8, piggyback on a CG-9 Guiding: no corrections Exposure time: 5 minutes Film: Scotch Chrome 400 Along the upper edge of the picture are three HII emission nebulae IC 1848, IC 1805 and IC 1795 (from left to right) barely visible. Above h Persei (that is the right one of the two) is Stock 2, another open cluster containing dimmer stars that are not as concentrated as h Persei and its companion. There is some vignetting visible resulting from taking the picture with the lens stop fully open.
