NGC7129 - fantastic object!

I did once ride my motorbike up through Denmark, then took the ferry to Sweden, another ferry to Finland and thus north into Norway and home from Oslo. I found it fascinating to ride out of any semblance of night whatever, though I didn't see the midnight sun. I was also too late to catch the worst of the bloodsuckers - fortunately. Mid-August, I guess, when we were up in Tromso. I'd like to do a trip north in the winter, too.

Could it be this one, Rodd? NGC2170 as Wim says.

It makes me think of seven sisters, all on LSD...

That's the one!  I can never remember its number, and for some rason I keep thinking its in Orion.  It is one of my most anticipated targets, and one that is really effected by focal length/FOV IMO
