Description

The Grus-Quartet consists of four large spiral galaxies which are so close to each other that they should be interacting.

This image was taken over the X EBA (Tenth Brazilian Astrophotography Encounter) in Padre Bernardo city, Brazil. It was my first time imaging from a really dark sky, away from urban lights and a great honor to be with the most skilled brazilian astrophotographers.
