This image isn't anything to crow about, being only 8 x 300s of clear filter, and quite small galaies, but it was a pleasure to take with the equipment running nicely and the visibility quite good. I enjoyed it :)

I was going to continue taking images of objects in the LMC (concentrating on a bit of a survey of it) but I only ha an hour or so out in the observatory and thought it not worth continuing, so tried this region instead, being packed with galaxies.

:thumbsup:

Quite a nice little selection of galaxies Roger.

You have captured some quite faint little fuzzies in that one.

Hi Roger

Just returned from a camping trip so I’m a little late in replying, but that is a great shot – well done. It is good to see such nice, round stars at 2000mm +, you must be very pleased with that!

Cheers

Dennis

Nice work. You are certainly dipping into the void there. Some of these fellows are a long long way away.
