The following session was another frustrating one with very variable transparency and intermittent cloud resulting in several dumped subs. Eventually I achieved a useable number for this pair of NGCs in Leo Minor. To the left is NGC 3021 and NGC 3003 on the right. NGC 3003 is reckoned to be twice the size of our own galaxy. Details: 10" f4.3 Newt. 14 x 8 minute exposures @ iso1600 with CLS in DSS, FIV, CS2 & XAT. 21.3.12
A minor duet
