Wow, it goes soooo deep!
I counted 24 galaxies, and there must be more that I missed.

That's one deep piccie!!!!. Just in the corner where 7331 is, there's hundreds of tiny galaxies in the background....let alone those more obvious ones!!.

Unbelievable! Reminds me of the famous Hubble image of the Sombrero galaxy. Thanks for posting.
