Paul,

I have recently started taking 12 hour exposures on all my images. I am 
currently working on a 36 hour narrowband image of NGC896 and NGC7635. We will 
see if that was worth the effort.

Bernard,

Great job.  I'm not going to try to count galaxies.  One question: Have you 
taken other exposures that were this long (like 12 hours)?  Maybe this image 
should be called "The Miller Deep-Field"!

Hi,
 

The link below is to NGC247. It is a spiral galaxy about 11 Million light years 
away in the constellation of Cetus. It is part of the Sculptor group of 
galaxies, which includes NGC253. You can notice many of the background galaxies 
in the upper and lower right of the image. If you click on the "Full Size 
Uncropped" link below the picture you will see the original image where north 
is up. I posted a rotated and cropped version because I think the galaxy looks 
better viewed horizontal.
