Description:
Open cluster northern of Sadr (gamma Cygni). It is "triangle"-shaped,
with more or less concave "sides", consisting of many faint stars. The
field of view is peppered with many stars, brightest are about 9th
magnitude, but most are faiter than 11. Above cluster there is one
object looking like very small open cluster with 9th-10th magnitude
star in the center of it, surrounded with several 12th magnitude
stars. It appeared nebulous, and I couldn't identify it from Skymap
charts. Sketch is available at mentioned URL.
