NGC5101, 5078 and about 100 other galaxies

Another galaxy cluster image I took last weekend at my dark site.

The top half of the image shows some yellowish background spots. These aren't stars and are all galaxies. There are a large number of them.

TEC180 and FLI ML8300, offaxis guiding.

LRGB 100 40 40 40.

Superb seeing. Sky was just totally still with stars even low on the horizon blinking only slightly. Stars near the zenith seemed totally still with just the very slightest shift noticeable on some of the brightest.
When its cold, seeing is often really really good at my dark site.
