Has anyone noticed the image in STScl-PRC04-07a

[ldavidcooke]

Has onyone noticed the two circles of near void in the center left of the STScl-PRC04-7a. Add in the near void hole in the right and slightly low center. This is the first time I have seen what appears to be clusters of galaxies surrounded by vast areas of void. Is it possible this was a processing error? <br /><br />See Image at http://www.space.com/php/multimedia/imagedisplay/img_display.php?pic=v_ultra-deep_field_02.jpg&cap=Astronomers+at+the+Space+Telescope+Science+Institute+today+unveiled+the+deepest+portrait+of+the+visible+universe+ever+achieved+by+humankind.+Called+the+Hubble+Ultra+Deep+Field+%28HUDF%29%2C+the+million-second-long+exposure+reveals+the+first+galaxies+to+emerge+from+the+so-called++dark+ages%2C++the+time+shortly+after+the+big+bang+when+the+first+stars+reheated+the+cold%2C+dark+universe.+Credit%3A+NASA%2C+ESA%2C+S.+Beckwith+%28STScI%29+and+the+HUDF+Team<br /><br />Dave Cooke

I've never noticed the voids, but keep in mind that the "field of view" includes many "walls" of galaxies, seperated by 100 million LY gulfs. The view is perpendicular to the walls, there are probably 5 or 6 of them in this view.
