Hi Guys,

Took this on Friday night of the Antennae Galaxies. 10 x 5 minutes at ISO 400. Was rather low in the horizon from the light pollution. Not sure on your monitor but on my LCD i can just see the curl tails. it looks like one of those garden bugs curled up....

hi Eric,

great result! nice colors and detail.
a bit more exposure time and we'd see the galactic trails of that pair.

Well done Eric, I can make out the tails faintly and a nice capture of the SN as well.

I tried an image of these galaxies a well last year but failed in getting the tails, they certainly are tricky devils but I will definitely will have another go armed with more knowledge now.

cheers

Nice work here Eric,
great detail with such a large fov with this object.
I really like the colours, very typical to this object so your right on with your balance.

Keep up the good work.
