Abell 2151 – Chile

Here is a wide field shot of the Hercules Cluster of galaxies about 500 million ly away.

The cluster belongs to the larger Hercules Super Cluster, which in turn, is part of the Great Wall super structure.

I have counted about 50 galaxies in the image.

PlaneWave 12.5″ Astrograph with an ST11000 camera, Astrodon filters, and ASA gearless DDM-85 mount. F/8 LRGB (45/8min L,8/8min each 2×2 RGB).
