These wonderful Galaxies were captured on the weekend in the presence of a 1/4 moon!...
The amazing thing i found is that you can see so much detail!. I wasn't expecting that....considering the average seeing and the light of the moon to boot!
It was a cold night here in Ontario on Saturday night...but the results were well worth the near "frostbite"....lol..
