Lonely Jewel Box really has many friends
It seems to sit in isolated splendour, but a bit of exposure shows that
it is far from being alone in the sky.

You know, the more I look at this, the more I like it!! I've tried several times to snap The Jewel Box, and never had it look this good!

Looks good raymo, well done looks like I'm going to have to stray away from my little scope to capture this beauty!

Thank you all very much. Yes Dunk, Kevin has been seduced by aperture
of late. Small [wide] and large [narrower] both have their place.

Is true. I've come down with aperture fever again. I want a 10" F4 now.
