Description:

A trio of galaxies in Coma Berenices constellation:NGC4725,NGC 4747 and NGC4712. The galaxies are at a distance about 40 million, 50 million and 207 million light- years respectively. NGC4725 is an intermediate barrel spiral galaxy and it interacts with the NGC4747 taking a distortion of this galaxy and causing tidal trails. In the image several faint galaxies are captured and below,for example, some G band magnitude are reported: PGC1743037:+21.0 mag PGC1745906:+19.6 mag PGC1745311:+20.9 mag Full resolution: https://www.astrobin.com/full/mz7nmq/0/ The image has been taken with a C14 Edge HD, Hyperstar V3 system at f/1.9, Fornax52 mount, ASI 294MC PRO with L-Pro Optolong filter. 50 dark frames 50 flat frames 360x30 sec sub @ unity gain at -15°C #Asi294MC Pro, #celestrontelescope , #Optolong #hyperstar #astronomy #Fornax
