Description

Whilst testing a new oag/filter drawer on my ES127 refractor pointed the scope at ngc5846 and it's neighbours in Virgo. The focal length and integration time were far too short to do much justice to this interesting group of distant galaxies (~90mly) but following such a lean period I was pleased to get something out of the image.
