Galaxies are a real tuff one for me being so close to a city. I don't think it turned out to bad though.

I'm not sure why but my scope just dosn't track well in this part of the sky.

Nice shot Brian, and specially for one taken close to a big city... LP really sucks!
Your tracking seems pretty good from here...
You've captured good detail, including the dust lanes and at least a couple of "companion" galaxies in this shot...


Thanks!
