Tiny M108 and friends

Hi,

This is a pretty small target for the image scale i'm shooting at so not much detail in M108 here. This area has a fair number of small PGC galaxies ranging around mag 16-18ish.
I was happy to have picked some of these up to maybe at least make this image somewhat interesting to look at. Hope I left the background light enough for you all to pick them out,please do let me know if it appears too dark.

This is 40x360s luminance and 10x300s RGB. Should have gone a bit deeper on the RGB,I fought some noise problems.

Taken with my TMB 115 at F7 and ST10xme
1200gto guided with a remote guide head and e-finder.

I cropped of the edges of this just a little and resized it to 65%

Thanks for looking,your comment and critiques welcome,

Jason

Small, yes. Pretty, you bet! Well done!

Hi Jason

Nice shot.

That is a fair amount of detail for the scale. The star at the top middle left looks like it has a couple of galaxies around it. I wonder if it is hiding a small cluster??

Nice shot. Color on the stars looks natural and it looks like lots of those dim background galaxies are peeking through. (I guess the exposure would need to be way longer to get all of them to really jump out.)
