Description

A fascinating trio of galaxies that i just never could do right.  Reflections in the green channel and some messiness that ended up making the L hard to stretch right.
I revisited this a year later with a bunch more L but it didn't seem to help a great deal.  I'll revisit this again with my SCT one day.

Description: Added quite a bit more L and reprocessed using better techniques. There's still a lot of problems with the L reflections and background. So i couldn't pull much of the hamburger's tail out of the noise. But the detail in the galaxies is a fair bit sharper and less noisy.
