Virgocluster

two spiral galaxies in the Virgo cluster Canon 700D attached to 350 mm refractor, ISO 3200, T=50x30 sec

in the Virgo vluster of glaxies. (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virgo-Galaxienhaufen) Canon 700D attached to Techsky refractor f=360 mm. T=50x30sec, ISO 3200

Lucky to have in April more than a week clear skies. Time for the Virgo cluster. This galaxy cluster contains more than 5000 galaxies. It hosts a number of "famous" galaxies, a.o, M87 the jet and black hole elliptical galaxy To the left: 10 x 15 degree area centered on the Virgo cluster In the middle: a negative rendition of the left picture Top right: a cropped version of the picture on the left Lower right: a telescopic picture of the centre of the Virgocluster

Pictures made with Canon 700D in prime focus of d=15 cm and f=750 mm Newton reflector. The Virgo cluster contains about 5000 galaxies, each galaxy contains more than 1000000000 stars

Combined 45 exposures. One of the first galxies I observed wirh the Westerbork Radiotelescope

Find the seven galaxies. Combined 5 exposures

Auf dem Negativ erkennt man die schwache ausgedehnte Galaxien besser als auf dem Positiv
