Description

A pair of lesser imaged galaxies. Even at this FL they are still fairly small.  I was pleased at the other small galaxies in the frame, especially PGC 2256021 (one of a pair "8 o'clock" from the 1160/1161), an 18.21 mag target that is fairly well set apart from the background. .  I guess its gratifying to know my skies still allow such things!
