Really nice field there Franck. The edge-on galaxy at the bottom has come out really well.

Cheers,

Rich.

Thank you Anthony and RIch,

Yes, I was very surprised about the result but can you imagine, before to shoot this galaxy, I was ready to take around 20 pictures but the after 1h50, I got the wall of my building so, I done my dark after that.

Best regards.

Thank you Adams & Phil,

I'm very happy about the last version of my picture.

And this field is nice with only 102mm of diameter (4 inch) ! But I'm also happy about my star autoguider because I can have each shoot during 10' so is well.

Best regards

Franck
