Description

Finally the galaxy season started!
I decided to begin it spending more than 25 hours with these galaxies, objects shoot less frequently than others.
I wanted to have all of them in my image, so I had to find a trade off in terms of framing: the result is that the main Ngc 2903 is a little bit too near the border, but this is the price I had to pay to get also the nice Ngc 2916 in the FoV.
Anyway I created a B version where you can check NGC 2903 as the main galaxy of the frame.
In the image it came out clearly also PGC 27115: it's a 18 magnitude galaxy so I wasn't sure to be able to catch it.
You can see it much better in B version.

Thanks for watching!
