Description:
x40 (24mm) shows a slight glow due to the elongation (?) between the two stars of this four star asterism in which NGC 7457 is located. x80 /12.5mm)shows a general glow around the entire asterism. Maybe Stockholm's light defied the seeing or maybe a filter is needed to make out more of the disc.
