This is a photo of the sky area around the microlensing event EROS-BLG-2000-5 (indicated, near the centre). Technical information: this image shows a 0.25-sec acquisition exposure of EROS-BLG-2000-5, obtained with VLT ANTU + FORS1 in order to set up the spectrograph slit for the subsequent spectral exposures. The filter was Bessell-I (wavelength about 900 nm) and the field measures about 2 x 2 arcmin 2. North is up and East is left.
