Description

Both galaxies are located in the Northen Skies in the constellation Pegasus at a distance of about 200 Mio LJ. NGC7771´ diameter is about 140000LJ and NGC7769 about 180000LJ including its dust wings. Both belong to the Lyons Group of Galaxies LGG483. They are rather weak in brightness, their area brightness is indicated as 14.2mag/arcmin (NGC7769) and 13.1mag/arcmin for NGC7771.
Due to the ongoing bad weather at my location, I could not continue to collect photons and decided the develop what I got up to now... if weather permits before they fade for this year, I shall upload a revision.
In total I had taken about double of the listed frames but due to the not excellent seeing and my aim to take just the best frames, I had to eliminate about 50% of all frames taken.

The revised version, which I set now as active, includes another night of frames - so most likely that overall impression should be better now...
