Description

this is my first attempt at this compact group of galaxies approximately 100 million light years away from us.  There is a beautiful spiral galaxy, which looks barred, called NGC 5350.  This is one of the further away galaxy clusters that I have imaged, and the first of the Hickson Compact Group of galaxies.  It is this months challenge for my astronomy club, Amateur Telescope Makers of Boston, or ATMOB.  Clear Skies
