Thank you, Ianp and Larryp. Because of its brightness, it is hard a good image of this cluster.

NGC104, not often photographed but it should be, nice catch, I like the old yellow stars, shows the age of the cluster.

Thank you, Justin and Justin Tilbrook. It's an impressive cluster, with high number of stars. Similar to Omega Centauro.
An old small place where many things are running up to now. I like to imagine Omega, and this cluster, as proto-galaxy.
