The Seven Sisters. Move your mouse over the image to see their names. Atlas and Pleione are the parents of the severn sisters. The seventh sister, Asterope, is rather faint and does not show well on the original picture so I have increase the gamma of the mouseover image to 1.6 in oder to make it more visible. All the sisters are clearly visible on the picture below.
