hello members this is the first guided shot from my APM 107
probably not quite suited to this sort of widefield but anyhow ngc 1365 and friends it would seem!
39 110 seconds @ iso 640 with darks and only a couple of flats, TS 0.79 reducer / flattener (f4.8) seems to work quite well too

This is one of my favourite galaxies, I haven't had a chance to shoot it yet. great work. the good thing about the wide FOV is that you can see some of the other Fornax cluster galaxies.

it is certainly one of mine too ever since i shot its supernova last year, the first i have ever seen.
the amount of other galaxies did surprise me though

Wow you still got a fair bit of detail in there Pat considering it's size in the field. I must admit this is a favourite of mine also. Nicely done!
