Nice image Jérémy, very naturally processed. My first CCD should be arriving tomorrow which also uses the KAF 8300, seems to be a good performer.

Oh, and i think you mean deep 'field' your English is excellent though, much better than my French!

Looking at the left lower corner, there's a bright star with three galaxies around it. The one on the right looks distinctly warped. Gravitaional interaction?
