Earlier this week (August 14, 2007) I took advantage of the clear night skies and photographed along the Milky Way, specifically below Cassiopeia. It's a wonderful area of the sky as is the opposite side of the Milky Way where the Teapot is. I worked my way up from the OB-Association of stars near Mirfak to the Double Cluster. When I reviewed the images I noticed a curious asterism next to it.
It looked oddly like a juggling stickman. A quick look at the Sky told me it wasn't a discovery ... at least in the true sense. The asterism is known as Stock 2 and is commonly called the Muscle Man. I do recall seeing it before in a refractor many years ago, I just didn't realize it was so close to the Double Cluster. If you have an eyepiece that gives you a 3 to 4 degree field of view you can frame it very nicely, the same field of view that would allow you to see the Double Cluster in one view.
