Stephen's Quintet

It's almost 4AM here at the observatory, and we are starting to wrap things up. Once we obtained our goal of photographing M13 (see previous post), I asked to see if we can grab an image of Stephen's Quintet. This sweet collection of galaxies can be found in the Pegasus Constellation. From our location in Twin Falls, ID our target was pretty close to the Zenith, so we didn't seem to have trouble.

The final jpeg was shot in B&W, and can be grabbed here.

We did 25 exposures at 90 seconds each.
