Description

This is a wide view of the NGC 7331 Group and Stephen's quintet.
NGC 7331 group
 is a visual grouping of galaxies in Pegasus. NGC 7331 is a foreground galaxy in the same field as the collection, which is also called the Deer Lick Group, it contains four other members, the unbarred spirals NGC 7335 and NGC 7336, the barred spiral NGC 7337 and the elliptical NGC 7340. These galaxies lie at distances of approximately 332, 365, 348 and 294 million light years, respectively. They are not gravitationally associated.
Stephan's Quintet is a visual grouping of five galaxies of which four form the first compact galaxy group ever discovered.

This is imaged at SRO last week, and processed in Tria for deconvolution, Pixinsight and Photoshop.

Worked hard to bring out the faint IFN in the image without compromising on the subtle galaxy details and star field which I wanted to preserve.
