NGC5128-Leo Triplet

Hi All

Here are a couple of recent images.

NGC5128 is previous posting with an additional 7 frames for a total of 1 hr 42 mins. All 360 sec exposures.

Leo Triplet is one hour of data all 360 sec exposures from a couple of nights ago ... rotated 180 degrees ... there was a lot of high cloud around so I was surprised this came out as well as it did. Stars are a little eggy in this ... I had to do 2.5 sec guide intervals to compensate for cloud ... I usually guide at 0.5 or 0.7 sec intervals.

I like the Leo triplet Steve - I must give this another try with longer subs now my guiding is working.
