Description

Another elaboration of the "Triplet of the Lion".

These are three galaxies distant from us about 35 million light years.

M65, M66, NGC3628

It was a lot he wanted to try to take.

But anyhow .. the weather has always been adverse.

Yesterday evening acceptable evening, of course, from heaven in the metropolitan city of Genoa, which means - for technicians - "Bortle 7"!

In any case, the chase went well enough, except for a few poses, with persistent wind that moved the telescope.

60 50 "poses - WO Z73 telescope on EQM35PRO - BAADER Booster 2" pollution filter - ASI 178 MM camera, Asicap for Linux and GThumb for Linux. Post Gimp for Linux.
