NGC 891, Abell 347, Arp 145

            NGC 891, Abell 347, Arp 145 in Andromeda.

Not so much a jaw dropping pretty picture, but a treasure box for lovers of those faint fuzzies. The beautiful edge on NGC 891 in the lower right, distant galaxy cluster Abell 347 in the center and above. Special guest in the lower left: embryo shaped Arp 145, two colliding galaxies at roughly the same distance (around 240 Mio lightyears) of Abell 347, so it's a member?

The whole field (and even more so the uncropped image) is full of galaxies down to about magnitude 19. Amazing how deep one can go with a small refractor and a rather short integration time these days.

4h18min worth of 180sec exposures with an Evostar 72ED, Nikon D5300a, HEQ5, MGEN III under moonlit Bortle 4 skies. PixInsight, Affinity Photo
