Smoke Ring Galaxies in Virgo

This is a work in progress

Average seeing, some cloud to dodge and what do you know...periods of strong breezes again greeeaat for the two nights it took to get this miserly 90min of 1/2 decent data ...but I won't harp on again

Would hope to get a little more data and some colour frames next new moon I guess...but so far so ok I guess..?

EDIT: Now in Colour

100% resolution crop of the main members

Full Frame to surf there are some cool shaped distant galaxies in there - check out the lower left edge of the full frame.
