Description

This image was taken from Cherry Springs Star Party. Given the focal length of my scope (~1100mm), it was challenge to fit all galaxies as well as the tidal wave into the frame. You can see faint tidal wave in the left lower corner, extending from the Hamburger galaxy. I intentionally did not want to over-process the image in order to show the tidal wave.
