I set up to image HCG 68 last night but when I came to look at my stack it didn't look anything like HCG 68. A little investigation revealed that I had actually imaged HCG 58 which I had in my target list but had discounted as it was too far west to be viable. According to Stellarium the last sub was captured with it at an altitude of only 11 degrees, and partially hidden by the obsy wall.

If anyone wants to know what HCG 58 looks like, here it is, just an hour each RGB

It's probably too late now to get anything on HCG 68. Does "jinxed" come to mind :cussing:?
