Bernie,
Do you mean the _pair_ of galaxies embedded in the cluster? No, but they're
probably MAC (i.e. anonymous) galaxies. I see about a dozen galaxies scattered
around the field.
BTW, exquisite guiding and focus on your image. One of the best I've seen of
that cluster! Keep up the great work. You're really burning up the photons
lately.
Clear skies,
Wayne (aka Mr. Galaxy)

Hi,
Here is my latest picture, M12. M12 is a globular cluster in the
constellation Ophiuchus. It is about 16,000 light years away and has a
diameter of about 75 light years. Does anyone know what that galaxy is in
the lower right corner of the cluster at about 5 o'clock?
