Hi Greg,

Which one is the King? M83, NGC 253, Cent A, LMC, SMC?

Sorry I'm in one of those moods...

I also sent you an email regarding this image.

Cheers
Stuart

I'm with Fred. Exotic refractors are "nice", but its hard to beat the combination of long focal length and aperture for galaxy work as this image beautifully illustrates. This is a lovely image Greg - certainly one of my favourite pieces of work you've done.
