Description

This image was taken with the RASA 11 and consists of 300 60 second subs taken with the ASI2600 OSC camera. The sky was not as transparent as I would have like however it still captured a lot of intersting galaxies. This is one of the most densely populated regions of space for Galaxy hunting and moves us nicely into Galaxy hunting season for the UK which is beginning to show its availability being a spring activity mostly.
