This image is the sum of 333 60 secs unguided subs  taken during the night of the 18th of May 22. Images taken from my bortle 8 home terrace.
Aquisition, stacking and processing (gradient removal, ddp, deconvultion) with Astroart 8.

ngc 5985, ngc5982 and ngc5981 are, from bottom to top, the galaxies in the image. This group is called "Draco Trio" because of their location in the Draco constellation. These are 3 very different galaxies, and ellictic one (ngc 5982), and edge on one (ngc5981) and a spiral almost face front one (ngc5981).
