About this image

Owen Brazell's DSS webinar inspired me to get out and observe some more galaxy clusters. I had never heard of this one but its really rather nice. Theres a couple of quite nice spirals as well as a big cannibal elliptical. Look closely and you can see there is at least one much more distant galaxy grouping in the background - just above the bright star central/right. 

Its galaxies all the way down. 

Must try the other ones he suggested.
