Leo II Dwarf Galaxy and loads of smaller galaxies

[symmetal]

Here's a fairly wide view of the Leo II Dwarf Galaxy taken with a FLT98 and ASI6200MM and just over 5 hrs total integration. Stacked in APP and processed in Startools and PS.

I wondered what the odd hard-edged shape objects were until ASTAP identified them as asteroid 747 Winchester. I think APP wondered whether to remove them in stacking as they were not present in the same spot over 5 days of subs and ended up giving them an odd shape. I've labelled them on the annotated image in red. 🙂

UGC06253 is the annotated name for the Leo II Dwarf. I was surprised at how many other galaxies are also shown in the image. Could be valid as an entry for the Galaxy Clusters competition. 😊
