Description

My first "galaxy season" target is the group of galaxies known as the The Leo Triplet, which consists of Messier 65, Messier 66 and NGC 3628 (the latter of which I think looks the most interesting of the set). The moon and Mother Nature were nice enough to give me a few clear night where I could image straight from 12:30-5:30 in the morning.
