Mike,
I always like to include the uncropped image. You can spend hours looking
for galaxies. I often thought it would be a neat contest to give people a
full resolution image like this and see who could identify the most
galaxies.

*That might be the understatement of the year - "dozens". Man, I got lost
roaming around the uncropped version stumbling over one ultra distant galaxy
cluster after another. Galaxies out number individual stars by at least a 3
to 1 ratio in the uncropped. I love images like this one.....awesome shot.
