Description

To go along with the 18-panel mosaic of the Virgo Galaxy Cluster we shot using the small WO Z61 refractor, we also drilled in on each of the Messier galaxies in the Virgo Cluster using the 1100 EdgeHD. This is the second of those long focal-length images. I'm personally not comfortable calling NGC 4567 & 4568 by their colloquial name, so I just refer to them as "the Nads."
