I'd like at least a few very crowded fields, just to see if we can
handle them.  A cluster (M67) I guess would qualify as crowded.
It will be fun to see if we can resolve stars that close.  It has
200 stars in a 0.5 degree area.  It should make a good test case
for the various object extraction programs and later on a good test
for the star matching algorithm in the database.
