Fornax cluster

This is an image I have been collecting for several months. To be honest I am unimpressed with how it looks. The composition is ok but it just lacks any punch in my opinion. I have done several processing runs, battled with a gradient that occurred from high cloud, recollected more data and now I am just done with it. I won't bother collecting more and trying to make a sow's ear into a silk purse. It currently contains 13.3 hours of data.

Of interest is all the galaxies both near and far in the field. That was my intent to show the galaxies in this field. I think it needs a mount of data to bright out the really faint fuzzies but do I want to go that far?
