A Gaggle of Galaxies

[Hagar]

Just a quick Lum shot from last night of M86 and friends. 5X10 minute exposures with QHY9 Mono Camera and my Tak FS102.

Not a great picture but I decided to post it just so everyone can count the little fuzzies.

HOW MANY CAN YOU SEE??????

[rogerg]

Wow, sure are a few there. I count about 30. :thumbsup:

[Alchemy]

the distorted one at the top looks fascinating

[seeker372011]

26 or 27?

[multiweb]

Very nice :thumbsup: My estimate is that there's a s**tload of them :lol:

[TrevorW]

The reverse image helps

Thanks

[Omaroo]

Really nice Doug - a top capture around this time of the season.

The Eyes Galaxies look great!

Thanks Doug. I really like these shots, there's so many galaxies out there.

Really puts things in perspective.

Love the "double apostrophe" galaxy in top right hand corner......

[h0ughy]

i counted 29 - nice work

[bluescope]

Yeah lots and lots ... I think you nailed the count there Frank ... might even be a few more lurking.

:thumbsup:

[Hagar]

I also came up with 31 but I am also working with the bigger FITS file.

Well done Frank.
Maybe if I do some 30 minute exposures of this area I can find a few more.

[pgc hunter]

Nice shot!

I counted 64.

[spearo]

Did I win a prize?
A tak? a G11? a QHY9?

Great work Doug.
I count 2---------------------many.
Keep it up.
Cheers Kev.

[dcalleja]

Lots.
Great shot

[Hagar]

Sorry Frank, 64 beats 30. No prize for second or third.

Starting to get a bit faint to be sure at this number.

[spearo]

Oi!
I wasn't counting the "out of focus" stars...
