Three from last night - NGC3309, NGC4567, NGC5746

Here's three images I snapped last night from home using the 10" Newt/DSI II. 50x1min for NGC3309 and NGC5746 and 60x1min for NGC4567. All could clearly do with more/longer subs but still quite a satisfying nights imaging after weeks of rubbish weather. I think my favorite is the NGC3309 image which is my first attempt at such a large group of small galaxies - still amazes me that there are so many out there. I also really like the triple star grouping just left of center.

Comments welcome.
