Dynamic duo

[LewisM]

Just another try to rehash some old data, some average quality (look at those yakky stars!). Results are less than spectacular, but it is only 2 hours with an 85mm telescope.

Let's see who can name the 2 galaxies and which constellation they lie in. No using plate solving software

Don't see many images of these 2 - they make a nice contrasting duo with a near face on and a side on.

I am NOT uploading a better quality image, so you'll have to live with a cruddy pixellated jpeg

Good clue. Peacock - Pavo. IC5052 and NGC6943.

I must give them a try some time.
