Capricorn _RFGC galaxies

[Mike JW]

August 18th - RFGC galaxies in Capricorn - why did I visit these guys? - because I can!!!! and it adds a few more ticks to my Flat galaxy list - I must get a life??? They vary between mag 15.7 and 16.7. These galaxies are for folk who live further south and in very dark skies.

Its remarkable how low an altitude you can go and still get decent views. You never know what you're going to turn up with these barely visited galaxies.

Hi Martin - decent views? SLL failed to cope but Jocular did fine. I did then load the snapshots into Photoshop to tweak them further. In Jocular the gradient slider is incredibly useful to deal with the background noise. These shots show the power of the EEVA approach. Mike
