Description

I enjoy wider galaxy field shots like this one from time to time, especially if there are some colorful stars to brighten up the darkness of space.  Here the well-known Leo Triplet is shown surrounded by a field that's very rich in galaxies of all types and sizes.  I used 2x drizzle to improve the sampling.
