55mm f/9.1, 25x, Bortle 6, NELM 5m0+
Very nice view with embedded double star. Around the double star I saw about 8 fine stars.

70mm f/5.7, 15x, Bortle 4-, SQM-L 20.9
Central optical double star STF485 AE very dominant with nearly equally bright components. About 75% around the double star some scattered, fainter stars are apparent. Overall the cluster is quite evident.

Central double star evident and easily split, which is surrounded by many faint stars. Very nice view!

8" f/6, 37x, Bortle 7, NELM 4m5
Quite evident cluster with obviously higher star density than the surrounding. In the center very apparent and separated the double star STF485 AE.

B 10x50, SQM-L 21.5
der Golden Harp Cluster ist unauffällig - das sonst markante helle Sternpaar im Haufen ist als ein Stern erkennbar - indirekt zeigt sich um die beiden Sterne eine Andeutung von leichtem Griesel
|
MODERATE
|
B 18x70, SQM-L 21.5
der Haufen wird stark dominiert von den zwei helleren Sternen, die knapp getrennt erkennbar sind - ringsherum um die beiden sind einige sehr viel schwächere Sterne erkennbar - nordnordwestlich stehen noch ein paar mittelhelle Sterne
|
EASY
|
100mm f/6.4, 71x, SQM-L 21.5
bei 20x ist der Haufen zart mit einem feinen Schimmer erkennbar - neben den beiden auffälligen Sternen sind ein paar Lichtpünktchen im Nordosten und im Südwesten angedeutet - bei 71x sind insgesamt gut 20 Sterne direkt und indirekt sichtbar
|
EASY
|
12.5" f/4.5, 45x, SQM-L 21.5
bei 45x stehen zwei hellere Sterne im Zentrum - der Haufen hat zwei Sternketten, die aussehen wie zwei Hörner - er hat mit etwas Fantasie das Aussehen einer lachenden Teufelsmaske - lohnenswert

2020-05-15: At 22x immediately apparent with a beautiful separation between the equally bright components. One component appeared slightly bluish, the other light orange. At 44x the subtle color difference can be seen a bit better. The double star is in a nice star field together with 51 Cam.
