Description:
Quite small, barely visible (usualy, I have no such 
problem with this object). It's surounded by a few 
brighter *, so it's hard to say what's inside the cluster.

Four 7- to 9- mag stars form a center, but it's hard to say if
"nebulosity" I see is due to unresolved stars or bad optics.
