Two great galaxy clusters from Capella Observatory:
Markarian's Chain and M87 in Virgo, and
Abell 426, the Perseus cluster, with NGC 1275. NGC 1275 really stands out!
Both images are by by Makis Palaiologou, Stefan Binnewies and Josef Pöpsel.
I must say, now that I'm here, that there are many great images in this thread. I would be very happy to see almost all of them as APODs, including the ones I have linked to here, but to me one of the images in this thread stands out, nevertheless. I just love IC 1396 in 3D, and I really hope it makes it to APOD!
