Lower's Nebula and the small star cluster NGC 2169.

The rather obscure emission nebula catalogued as Sharpless 2-261, at top, but commonly known as Lowers Nebula.. At bottom is the small star cluster NGC 2169, also known as the X-Y Cluster or Number 37 Cluster as its two clumps of stars, just resolved here, resemble those letters or numbers with a little imagination at the eyepiece. At bottom left is the small emission nebula Sh2-269. The larger fainter patch above it is Sh2-267.
