Description

Day 7 of the "fair weather catastrophe" here in Germany.

I still remain faithful to my baby Newton, who gives me a lot of joy even in the windy nights.

NGC 4725 and his friends are a wonderful ensamble for this focal length.

I spent 1.5 nights for the recording and was not disappointed.

Even though I could certainly get a little more out of the post-processing, I am especially proud to have been able to capture the tidal tail of NGC 4747.

That night was the best guiding and seeing so far and I generously sorted out the wind affected images.

So I declare this picture here to be the best I have ever taken with the 5" baby.
