18mm EP (just under 1 degree FOV) frames this cluster nicely. Fills the view with a nice border. Petals/streams of stars visible radiating outward and tighter petals in the central concentration. Caroline's Rose is a great nickname for this tight open cluster. A bit faint under suburban skies but worth a long look to see all of the interesting shapes that pop out.
