Centaurus A and Omega Centauri

On one picture. Taken with a 6D + 70-300L @ 300 f/5.6 30x2minutes + darks + flats + biases.

South is right. Despite these objects are only 5 degrees apart, I have never seen a picture with both of them.

More recent pictures, including a timelapse video: http://skysurfer.eu .

A fabulous pairing these two if you have the FOV...just needs (heaps) more exposure...could be awesome if you get the time

There are a few good'uns out there if you Google'em
