Bernard,
This is an amazing picture with so many galaxies in one frame. Because of
the great number of galaxies and huge number of stars in each, I have no
doubt someone's out there looking out at us, just as we do.
The annotation is super as well.
Thanks for sharing.

Subject: [AZ-Observing] NGC 5291 in Abell 3574
Hi,
This is an image of NGC 5291 in the Abell 3574 galaxy cluster. It is a
cluster 200 million light years away in the constellation Centaurus. NGC
5291 is interacting with the Seashell galaxy near the bottom center of the
image, creating the faint tidal streams you can see near the two galaxies.
You can also see NGC 4329, NGC 5302, and NGC 5298 near the top of the image.
If you mouse over the image you will see an annotated version showing most
of the galaxies in the FOV.
Comments and suggestions welcomed.
