Comment:
The very bright “star” is Jupiter. The open cluster M67 is seen in the bottom of the picture.
Also Jupiter´s moons Callisto and Ganymede can be seen right next to Jupiter as the two faint stars almost drowned in the light of the planet. Callisto located to the right and Ganymede to the left.
