In Southern direction at this time of the year there are many galaxies.
This is the Leo I group, it consist of at least nine galaxies.
I had a lot of problem with dust and stains on the sensor this period.
Today I can process the image and remove these ugly spots. |

A drop around M105 galaxy, another name of it is NGC 3379, it's the one most to the right.
The other galaxies are NGC 3389 and NGC 3371. |
