Description

I made a list of several objects to try and image that I've never imaged before. I chose

Draco's Trio before I went outside. I've seen images of this trio but I didn't realize before

I imaged it just how small these objects are. I couldn't even see the objects in my eye piece.

If you squint your eyes a little you can see the trio of galaxies but very little detail was

resolved. A lot of the stars in the field of view are almost as large as the galaxies. With all of that said please enjoy my first image of Draco's Trio.
