It's been kinda slow on Astromart these days, so I thought I would post a quickie image of these three springtime galaxies.

The runs are on-going but slow right now. Waiting for another shipment of glass. I won't have one at Neaf this year.

Thank you for including NGC3077. I remember stumbling across it one day when I was panning around with M81 and M82. I had no idea it was there. It was kind of exciting: almost like "discovering" a galaxy!
