22.3.12

One I started earlier

The previous evening I had started to image the very spherical galaxy M 105 but conditions prevented me getting beyond just a few subs. After imaging the supernova I returned to M 105 to obtain a few more subs to add to the total already acquired. I didn't have to move the scope very far as M 95 is very close to the M 105 group in Leo. The other pair of bright galaxies are NGC 3389 at lower left and NGC 3384 in the centre. Details: 10" f4.3 Newt. 14 x 8 minute exposures @ iso1600 with CLS in DSS, FIV, CS2 & XAT.
