I noticed that the faint tails don't show up, is that because there is a risk of over exposure and washing out all those wonderful faint galaxies.

Hi Ric
Hmm?...not sure why you don't see them, they are very distinct my end? There are two main galaxies in the big wide field image - the interacting pair is top left and the other is bottom right in the image, are you looking at the correct galaxy?
Do you see them in this link to the crop of just the Antennae? If not then you will be missing all the faint background galaxies too so I think your monitor needs lightening or callibrating? Try viewing in a darkened room too?
