Thanks Mike, Rick, Bart.

One fairly amazing deep colour image of the area is by Bernard Hubl, with 5hrs luminance from Chile using a 20 inch scope.

Another excellent long-exposure colour image is by Ray Johnson, (Shiraz) with 14 hours of luminance + RGB using a 10 inch scope.

Tonight I counted 177 galaxies in our image. This is only the central half a degree or so. Heaps more would be off-screen.

Best,
Mike
