    Just below the central axis is a very small image of what might be an LBV with the central star.

    Could be. Nothing shows up on the SIMBAD search in the explore page, so maybe its not known: http://www.milkywayproject.org/tools/coordinates/59.434/-0.467/?zoo_id

    I agree with Rob - I'll add it to my list!

    Oh but looking at your link Rob, I think the LBV candidate is a bit further South, dead in the centre of the image. And yes, that one is an LBV candidate. Nice work!
