The group you've identified as PGC 54881/3 almost looks like 4 or 5 blobs, do you think there's a gravitational lens effect going on there? I found Andreas Domenico's site and it identifys PGC 54880 in that group ... web page

Hi Matt - don't think you should read too much into my 2065 pic - it's an enlargement from a tiny part of the full frame [below] and pushing the ETX+SX CCD combo to the limit but in the 'deep' 20min exposure does record galaxies much fainter than before. Yes - thanks for the URL which I'd found via Google whilst looking for a 2065 reference - prefering for now Alvin Huey's post on CN DSO forum and Megastar. Your continued interest is greatly appreciated
