Description

The Hydra Cluster (Abell 1060),  heavily cropped to remove a very bright star which overwhelmed the image.  Distance 158 million light years. Very little data collected due to light cloud and almost no clear nights so far this year! I was pleased to see how much detail I captured with less than two hours of subs. Although heavily cropped there are still over 75 galaxies visible in this image.
