I managed to get a bit of imaging time on Tuesday night and went for this group of galaxies Holmberg 124 in Ursa Major I would have liked a bit more data but the clouds rolled in.

Luminance of 33 x 300 and RGB of 5 x 300 each all binned 2 x 2 

Celestron 11" scope with a F 6.3 reducer

Nice one Bob, nice detail and colour coming through.

Thanks it turned out a better target than I first thought maybe I can add some more data to it if the skies ever clear ?

Excellent. The outer parts of ngc 2805 are very weak, so well done. Oddly enough I’ve been collecting data for this group too, lately. Clouds put my efforts on hold.

Thanks Wim, I did want to get more data on this target as like you said when I looked at the first sub NGC 2805 hardly showed up but when the subs were stacked I was surprised how well the galaxy came out I hope you manage to get your data soon.
