Leo Trio completed!

Here's my completed Leo Trio image (RGB added). And don't worry, it's a 'G' rated image ... there has been no artificial galaxy relocation done that could offend some viewers.

Scan around the full res version to see the background galaxies present! Pretty happy with the resolution I achieved - I lucked out with the seeing (between 1 and 1.5 arcsecs) when I was gathering the Luminance data! Some minor cropping done for composition purposes.

To get an idea of scale, M65 (bottom) is approx 9.7 x 2.8 arcmins in size
