Below are 2 images of Melotte 111, taken from a rural location in Derbyshire , United Kingdom in March 2003, exposed for about 30 seconds with a normal film camera. The brighter stars of the cluster make out a distinctive "V" shape as seen when Coma Berenices is rising. The slightly orange background is caused by Light Pollution coming from nearby cities. The right hand image is the same photo with labels added. The position of Gamma Comae Berenices is shown, as are the constellation outlines (orange), constellation boundaries (blue), and lines of equal Right Ascension and Declination (green). See also: |
