Hydra 1 cluster

This is one of my favorite areas of sky ever sice it was one of the first targets I nabbed with the 20" at a dark site and saw all these little galaxies!
Did this last night at the end of a session.

Single image 300s with Canon 760d at 1600iso
Scope is a GSO RC6 on Orion Atlas AZ/EQ G mount and guided via Orion SSAG Pro and ST80 with PHD
Only process is a quick denoise in Adobe raw and then some fiddling with levels and curves in PS CC followed by a fairly drastic crop. All the galaxies are quite small and faint but I love this field!!
