ASTRO: NGC 5395

Moonlight and mediocre seeing compromised the view of this pair of
interacting galaxies in Canes Venatici.

Taken from the middle of Berlin with an 8" SCT at f/6.5, G11 mount, SXV-H9
camera, 44x5 minutes.

The picture can also be found at www.slilge.de/temp/5395-44x5gut.jpg

Nice image of an interacting galaxy pair! I shot this pair almost 20 years
ago
on Tech Pan.

Came out well with the moonlight. I have a tough time with the moon.
Yet it can't compare to what you deal with with both moon and Berlin lights.

You just added another one to my list! That's an interesting pair. I
vaguely remember seeing them visually from high in the Sierra Nevada
mountains the night before a sheep herd came through and destroyed our
camp. We saved the scopes but lost all the camping gear. Don't camp in
open range, even if you are above timberline! There's still grass for
those $%#@ sheep.

I'm just finishing up processing a different pair of interacting
galaxies. I should post them later today.
