It's amazing, pretty much where you look there is always something interesting.
Specs: LRGB 30X5min each.
I think the central galaxy is NGC4696 but after a bottle of red, sort of lost track...
All good fun :)

Hi Peter
Did a little search and yes, you are correct, NGC4696 and friends of the Centaurus Galaxy Cluster. Lovely image of a busy field.

A terrific image. It looks like a Hubble widefield image.
What gear was used?
Greg.

What an interesting field! Boggles the mind just to consider what’s out there. Well done!!
Cheers Marc, hope you are catching the clear skies.
Hi Adam and thanks. No can do at this stage, my astrobin account is on hold :(
Hi Jeff. Took time to do a search and annotated the image. About 150 (named) galaxies!
Hi Greg. Taa muchly. Used the Esprit 150ED APO. Most impressed with your last image by the way!
Thanks Dave, I just love this astro thing. Imagine if the likes of Ptolemy could see what we can now...
Excellent Stuff Peter:thumbsup:
Best

Aaaah yes, just reread your post :thumbsup: Unlike some on here :whistle: I usually read posts properly :rolleyes:..., I thought it was one lot of 30X5min (or 150min, not even 3hrs)...buuut, ah yes, I see it was actually 4X30X5min shots :)...:thumbsup:
