Virgo Galaxy Cluster

[swlloyd3]

Hello,

So I managed to get out last night and do some imaging after a failed attempted the night before!

Thanks goes to Olly for suggesting this galaxy cluster. I have never had a go at it before but I will certainly be aiming to improve this image at my dark site in a few weeks!

Nice shot Ste, loads of galaxies in there.

What focal length was that taken at and the exposure time?
