Just Surfing Around

It's amazing, pretty much where you look there is always something interesting.

Specs: LRGB 30X5min each.

I think the central galaxy is NGC4696 but after a bottle of red, sort of lost track...

All good fun

Hi Peter

Did a little search and yes, you are correct, NGC4696 and friends of the Centaurus Galaxy Cluster. Lovely image of a busy field.

A terrific image. It looks like a Hubble widefield image.
What gear was used?

Greg.

Hi Jeff. Took time to do a search and annotated the image. About 150 (named) galaxies!

Aaaah yes, just reread your post Unlike some on here I usually read posts properly ..., I thought it was one lot of 30X5min (or 150min, not even 3hrs)...buuut, ah yes, I see it was actually 4X30X5min shots ...
