Three of the Caldwell Objects mentioned in this issue’s Night Sky Highlights are shown here. They were taken by Jim Mazur using a 14-inch Meade LX850 telescope at f/6 and an SBIG STF 8300M imager. 

Below is Caldwell 1 (NGC 188), an open cluster in Cepheus.

Next is Caldwell 2 (NGC 40), a planetary nebula in Cepheus also known as the Bow Tie Nebula.

Finally, this is Caldwell 5 (IC 342), a large but diffuse spiral galaxy in Camelopardalis.
