This is my first attempt at deep space Galaxies. Part of the Leo triplet these two galaxies are 35 million light years away. Taken through orange light polluted sky, I was quite pleased with this image as I could hardly see them at all through the scope. I used only 16 x 20sec images at ISO 3200 plus darks, flats and bias frames stacked in DSS. Due to blustery conditions, only 16 out of 80 images had round stars. I hope to do much better with good seeing and calmer weather in future.
