Very nice! I like the profusion of background galaxies supporting the trio. Thanks for sharing.

Hi,
This is an image of the Draco Triplet. It is a trio of galaxies about 10 million light years away in the constellation Draco. NGC 5985 is the spiral galaxy at the lower left of the image, NGC

Re: NGC 908 unbarred Spiral Galaxy
Hi Dean:
Two very nice galaxy images - great resolution and detail. I concur with Dan, there appears to be some radial vignetting which could be due to the flats (or lack thereof). In any

Re: NGC 7217 Spiral Galaxy
Dean,
Nice galaxy.
I wouldn’t expect this much vignetting or the flats over-corrected? Once you get a flat field, it would be much easier to process.

I’m wondering about Astronomy Magazine as are others. I finally reached someone there and they mentioned only coming in once to a week to do stuff.

Great job. Wish I knew your secret. They hardly ever use any of mine anymore. Of course, they don’t seem to pay anymore so I guess it does not matter.
