Looking down the length of the Townsend Teece Telescope from the dim red-lit interior of the Arts Centre Observatory, towards two objects in the night sky.

Contributors note: "Townsend Teece Telescope at the Arts Centre Observatory, angled SSE, I think we were observing the Jewel Box star cluster. "
