Details:
I was inspired by the binocular tour in the "Sky at Night" magazine to try and image these asterisms in Auriga.
The Cheshire cat or Smiley Face is e a curved line of stars forming the mouth and 2 bright stars forming the eyes.
Near to the Cheshire Cat lies another asterism called The Leaping Minnow. The bright stars form a fish shape.
