NGC 7331 & Stephan's Quintet

I captured this image back in October of 2021 using a different scope and camera,

https://www.astrobin.com/o6mjga/

I am thinking this image is just a bit better, although my stars are a bit oblong, it was really windy. I took a lot of 30 second exposures, but the big oly 190mm Mak/Newt catches a lot of wind, so what can you do. I also for fun put together a cropped image of the Stephan's Quintet vs. the Hubble and Davis Webb, not much of a comparison, LOL. I was going to crop the image more to highlight NCG 7331 and the Stephan's Quintet, but there are so many other galaxies in the image, I hated to crop them out.

NGC 7331 is estimated to be 49 million light years away, the 4 galaxy above 7331 are between 310 million and 430 million light years away.

The Stephan's Quintet make up 5 galaxies that in close apparent distance to each other. However, one galaxy NGC 7320 is around 39 million light years away where the other 4 are 210-340 million light years away.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
