Description

I've always wanted to image this beautiful grouping of galaxies.     I was really happy how this one turned out considering I only was able to collect a little over 3.5 hours on this while waiting for another target to come up.  This shot is a tight crop to bring out the details since I'm shooting at a 550mm focal length.      I was able to catch some of the tidal streams inside of Stephen's Quintet.    There are a number of other smaller galaxies in this field as well.  20 frames each RGB, 40 frames Lum.
