Really nice capture Kathy with great detain in the galaxies!
I'm not sure if it's my monitor but I'm seeing a blue granular gradient from left to right in the image.
Regardless it's a beauty.

Great image of these three. M66 is particularly striking.

I see the same blue gradient as Alex but as he says, its a beauty regardless.

Hello again Kathy. Another great image and this time of the Leo Triplet. Again, excellent contrast, well framed, and the edge-on galaxy NGC 3628 (Hamburger Galaxy) shows up nicely too. Thanks for sharing this great view with us Kathy and the best of wishes for many clear skies.
