Ngc 5985, 5982 & 5981

Hello
Many background galaxies in this FOV, but the 3 main galaxies are NGC 5985, 5982 and 5981 top to bottom respectively. The CDK/U16M FOV is about twice the size of this, but the only available guide star put the galaxies in the bottom half of the frame, so its cropped accordingly.

LRGB of 6:4:4:4 hours.

Martin
