Description

I never thought I could image a galaxy cluster with my backyard telescope, but when I saw this dense group of galaxies in Coma Berenices, I decided to give it a try. The first test exposures seemed promising so I acquired some more. Quite happy with the result. So many galaxies! Take a look at full resolution!
