Description

The Coma cluster of galaxies, enough said. An unthinkable number of stars in hundreds of galaxies as seen from more than 300 million light years away. Decent imaging conditions from Bortle 3-4 skies but lacking a little in integration time. It has been a while since i processed this, not sure i would do things the same way. Might redo.
