Ngc2903

This is one Messier overlooked in the constellation Leo. If my 500mm Tamron mirror lens can see it in a red zone in 2018, it's hard to believe he missed it 200 years ago! I took this on Monday night as it grazed the roof of my house with the Canon 550d and Tamron f8 500mm reflex lens mounted on the Sightron Nano Tracker. 18 x 40 secs 1600iso.

There's another galaxy to the right of Ngc 2903 showing up in the field as well.
