I'm slowly working my way through the van den Bergh catalog and I recently had enough clear skies to image few more: vdB 143, vdb 137,138. I'm always game for a dusty challenge.

I'll also work my way through the southern vdBH catalog as skies and seasons permit.

Very nice images Tom. The surrounding star fields are vastly different, which is also nice to view.

Thanks.
