The Leo Triplet

Description

The Leo Triplet is a group of galaxies (M65, M66, NGC 3628) that are about 35 million lightyears away from us. NGC 3628 (left) is also called the "Hamburger Galaxy".

The image was shot shot from my suburbian balcony (stack of 120 x 180 s ISO 800) with my 130/910mm refractor and a standard Pentax K3ii camera.
