Jim Mazur used a 14″ Meade LX850 telescope and an SBIG ST-8300M imager to capture some springtime galaxies:
Spiral galaxy Messier 106 in Canes Venatici, and to its upper right, NGC 4248.
Four galaxies in Leo with distinctly different shapes. From left to right, they are: NGC 3193, an elliptical galaxy; NGC 3190, a spiral galaxy viewed nearly edge-on; NGC 3187, with an angular “S” shape; and NGC 3185, with an outer ring and a central bar. Several smaller galaxies are also visible.
