The Leo Trio

I was finally able to capture the Leo Trio last night. I used Startools v1.2 to do the post processing and Nebulosity 3 for the pre processing. I'm very happy with the results. 20 exposures, 2 minutes each. SW254N, Atlas EQ6g. Canon 350d (modified) guided.

(from Wikipedia:)
The Leo Triplet (also known as the M66 Group) is a small group of galaxies about 35 million light-years away[5] in the constellation Leo. This galaxy group consists of the spiral galaxies M65, the M66, and the NGC 3628.
