NGC1365 and Friends

[rbronca]

Most people center this galaxy in their image, but there is a lot happening in the neighborhood. I brightened the annotated version to show just how many galaxies are visible.

There is 2 hours of Luminance and an hour each of RGB, all 2 minute subs, taken from a city location late last year.

Skywatcher 10" CF F4 Newtonian, QSI 683 on an AZ-EQ6 mount. Captured with SGP, edited in Pixinsight.

Comments / suggestions are most welcome.

That's looking very nice.
I also have a 10" f4 Newt so you're showing me
what I could obtain from my city location if
I can ever find the motivation to set my rig up.

The composition has worked very well in displaying the extended field of galaxies in the area. Processing looks to be very nicely done with great detail captured in the foreground objects

Beautiful field and very well processed.

exceptional. There's a ridiculous amount of galaxies hiding in that picture.

Thank you for the great comments
