Inspired by the shots of the leo triplet i thought i would have a go at these three fine galaxies,and get the whole story .1hr 40 min tried for two but the cloud rolled in, iso400 taken on the 10"newt with the 350d.

Nice shot Al...well framed and with quite a bit of detail in the galaxies:)

[CoolhandJo]

Nice Shot! Have you tried to extract more saturation (colour) out of them as they look a tad washed out? Maybe its supposed to be like that..

Very nice capture of these 3 showing nice contrast and detail.

All the best.

Nice shot Alan,
