Description

A pretty ring of galaxies in the Virgo cluster, with the grand spiral galaxy NGC-5364 in the top right, and NGC-5363, NGC-5356, NGC-5348 and NGC-5360 circling clockwise from there. There are a number of smaller galaxies lurking in the background as well. Addition of hydrogen-alpha brought out hydrogen concentrations in NGC-5364 as well as the hydrogen-rich ring around the center of NGC-5363.
