Faint Star Streams and Bridges

Click on image for capture details

Deep high contrast image of NGC6769 NGC6770 and NGC6771 galaxy group

Here is a comparison between a very deep image composed from nearly 8hrs worth of
photographic exposure by the UK Schmidt telescope - with an image composed of 4.5hrs
using an Orion Optics AG12 and Starlightxpress H694 CCD camera

A bridge of stars linking NGC6771 at the bottom to the two spirals above can be seen
as can a much fainter arc that reaches out to left from NGC6771 and up to NGC6770 above.
