That turned out very nicely. That bluey spiral makes it.

A wonderful busy field and finely presented galaxies. Thank you for sharing.

So much happening! Well done! Have you tried counting all the background galaxies?

This is always a great field to image. The detail looks good but the image looks a little too blue. Tweak that and you will have lovely image.
