Leo galaxy triplet quickie

I thought this came out pretty well considering I only gave it 43 minutes, and the weather was stinking hot. This is with 86 x 30 seconds. Have to limit subs to 30 seconds in this heat, otherwise thermal noise becomes a problem.

Bintel 8" F4 Newtonian, Baader MPCC MKIII, Pentax K-5, HEQ5 pro unguided and unattended (used the inbuilt interval timer) out the bedroom window.
