About this image

As per previous image, i have superimposed the image onto the new and totally excellent star atlas features in AstroArt 9.

As long as the image is properly plate solved then astrometry and photometry are much simpler, along with ability see what those faint fuzzes are. 

I have used the Gaia DR3 and SDSS catalogues for identification here.
