A few southern galaxies...

While going through the process of "squaring on" my STX, I decided to point the scope at a random galaxy and take a few subs.

Thin cloud and a half moon, so no colour.

The resulting image caught just a few more faint fuzzies than planned !

....displayed below at full-res and uncropped.... (O.K.... I did crop the bottom few rows due a small registration error)

It's big! Around 3meg.

I hope you enjoy looking at the galaxy zoo
