Here are M36, M37 and M38 in Auriga. While M37 is probably the most spectacular, I like M38 because you can see the "Have a nice day" smilely face to its right, with the smaller cluster NGC1907 on one of its cheeks. With my widefield refractors, it is quite remarkable to just pan around this region.

Photo details: A-P 105mm at f/4.4, Canon 20D, processing in photoshop and MaxIm DL.

Thanks for looking! Ivan
