Description

Leo Triplet, captured in the early morning hours, during the same imaging session that I imaged the Horsehead Nebula.  As I watched the subs coming up during the session I was amazed at the level of detail in each of these galaxies, even in the raw subs!  When you see that you know the processing will be a joy.  One of the thrills of imaging under dark and steady skies.

My annotated version with fascinating objects in the FOV of this image.
