NGC5905, 5907 & 5908 caught with two scopes

[gorann]

Three galaxies in Draco caugth during recent nights with two scopes. Esprit 150 with ASI071 (on Mesu 200) caught the starfield and a bit of the galaxy data (57 x 5 min at gain 200) and most of the data for the three main galaxies were caught with my 14" Meade and Sony A7s on EQ8 (233 x 3 min at ISO3200). So, a reflector - refractor mix with two colour CMOS cameras, and totally 16.4 hours. There are surprisingly few images of these galaxies - maybe becasue they are quite distant (=small).

Fascinating image!

Is that the size the galaxies have with your 14", or have you decreased the size to make it fit the FOV of the Esprit 150?

Thanks!

Yes, the 14" images were reduced to the size of the Esprit image, but you can always zoom into the image. Here is what two of tha galaxies looked like with the 14":

Thanks - sorry about the late response; had missed your reply.

Superb looking galaxies, especially the barred spiral.
