What a beautiful field with lots of interesting galaxies. The inverted view is great and really shows off the tidal stream well. Thanks for sharing!

Great result and love the red in the tidal stream galaxies and that central spiral is so perfect.

That is a fantastic image.

I am amazed at the images these Chinese RCs are putting out.
A great new product for the hobby.

Great presentation there Leo and nice processing, cool to get lots out of one image, so much hard work goes into collecting the data a single image can't show it all sometimes.

Very interesting :thumbsup:

Leo,

That is just beautiful. As John mentioned, that central spiral galaxy is just amazing.

Awesome flat field, too. That AP reducer is the goods.

Cheers.

Very lovely image - that face on spiral is so cool, and the tidal jet is a very nice detail too.

A wonderful image Leo, the tidal tail is fascinating.

Those ARP galaxies are very photogenic.

I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work.
