Zoomable Photo of "God's Hand"

Every dot in this particular image is not a galaxy. Most of them are stars, although the oblong shape the "hand" is reaching for is galaxy ESO 257-19, and there are loads more galaxies visible here and there.

The "hand" is relatively close by at ~1300 light-years. For reference, this is about as far away as the famous Orion Nebula. The photos we've seen, like the Hubble Ultra-Deep Field[0], where practically every shape is a galaxy, are focused on much smaller "empty" patches of sky, where most of what's visible is billions of light-years away.
