This is a deep true color image of the sky taken with the Blanco 4m telescope at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile. The image is generated by stacking three images taken through different color filters to create a single color picture.  The area covered by this picture is 40 arcminutes by 40 arcminutes, or roughly 1.5 times the size of the full Moon.  This picture is of a blank region of the sky; that is, if you looked at this region with your naked eye, you would not see anything.  The brightest object in the field (the star at the bottom right) is about 8 times too faint to be seen with the naked eye.  The faintest objects detected are almost 100 million times fainter than that!  In all, about 150,000 different galaxies are visible in the picture, as well as about 3000 stars.
