Description

NGC3846A, part of Abel 1377 a huge galaxy cluster in Ursa Major which is difficult for me to image more widely due to a bright adjacent star causing ghosting rings. I might try flocking my dew shield as I suspect I am getting reflections from it.
NGC3846A which doesn't appear to be imaged directly in Astrobin, is an irregular galaxy magnitude B 14.2   1.94*1.55 arc secs in size.  Also present are many other fainter galaxies. It would be interesting to know how faint some of them are. 
I might try imaging again with my mono camera if there is any interest. It isn't the most photogenic or interesting galaxy but it is a weird unusual shape which could do with more detail.
Galaxy ID isn't showing up but it is the blue odd shaped galaxy top right.
