[Placidus (Mike and Trish)]

As mentioned earlier, we inadvertently posted a reduced-to-half-size version courtesy of SmugMug no longer letting the author explicitly choose Original Size. Seems the owner has to that click twice on the image to get full size, and then save the link. The link is now correct if anyone wants to have another peek.

The colour is particularly good & the full frame with all the surrounding galaxies gives great context.

Thanks Pete. I counted 53 certain and another 10 probable background galaxies. Not our Personal Best, which was 144, but ok for 6.5 hours under a gibbous moon.
