Hi Guys,

Decided to take something abit more interesting. Here's two galaxies in collision NGC6872 and IC4970. Also managed to take a few other smaller galaxies around it.

Both consist of 12 x 84 second exposure stacked. I've also attached a pic from hubble for a clearer image :)

Love the last one with so many of them. Imagine how awsome that's going to look in the wider and higher-res field of the DSLR! :eyepop: ;)

Great work Eric. :cool:

I love images showing a background of multiple galaxies against a foreground of stars.

However, you might want to rename your galaxies. You were more zoomed in than you thought you were ;)

See attached screenshots from CDC which shows the FOV of your second shot :thumbsup:

Great images. I found the red text a little hard to read on the black, but the actual galxies - great. Good to see a nice collection in the one FOV too.

Roger.
