NGC 6872 & companions

Hi all,
this is quite a nice area of sky and I haven't imaged this since 2004.
had one of the best nights in a long time seeing wise when taking the colour. Lots of faint galaxies lingering in the back ground.

It is a bit of a mile stone for me as, I'm now able to get good long consistent sub exposures thanks to my new SX OAG.
Days of 4min max are finished with so there are a lot of fainter objects I won't have to pass up.

As with all things, there's pros and cons... all my subs line up so well, I now have to dither my guiding

Here's a link to my front page, hit the main thumb for a view.

My weather run's over for a bit now so hopefully you're getting some good nights further east from me!

All the best
Rich
