Description

On a cold night in February, I was able to use my Canon 80D modified but uncooled camera to capture the Leo Triplet.  The reducer/flattener brought the focal length to 644mm.  The cold kept the noise down and I shot at an ISO of 800, with flats and darks.  Workup was Siril and then Photoshop Elements, and the image was cropped a bit.
