ASTRO: NGC 5078/5101 (galaxies in Hydra)

Now these were the kind of objects I wanted to image in Namibia: Galaxies.
NGC 5101 (barred spiral to the left) and NGC 5078 (edge-on to the right) in
Hydra.

I was wondering if there were more from your southern trip. Both the
small and large clouds have a lifetime of objects in them it seems.
Don't think I'd seen those you did in he small cloud. Eta Carina was a
grand sight visually in a 14" f/7 scope when I was in New Zealand.
Never got a chance to image anything while there. Love these galaxies.
There are a ton of interesting galaxies down under. More than we have
up here. I live in the wrong hemisphere. You did a great job on these two.

Rick,

I would guess that I have processed about 40% of all images I got in
Namibia, so I have enough data to keep me going for a while :-)
