Thanks for looking everyone. Glad you enjoyed - was a real buzz hunting them down!
Think I've overcooked M49 and some finer detail in the background galaxies - more to learn there. Not happy with how the Sombrero has ended up either. Surprisingly difficult to get it right - although bright its a somewhat smaller galaxy (than say M83) leading to a temption to crop, which bloats the surrounding stars...
Don't get me wrong though - had a ball on the field and tweaking afterwards!
Jeanette - I'm always going to remember seeing that first frame of M49 coming through - had no idea there'd be tantalising glimses of so many others in the field for a "spur of the moment" object!
Ron, I've said again to Steve he's welcome to use any of the pics for the website. Least I can do in return for such a great stay.
