Description

A quick acquisition before the clouds raced to block me.

HCG56 (i.e. Hickson 56) is actually a cluster of galaxies, some of which are interacting, and they're super faint, like mag 15 or something, but not faint enough to hide from my cannon!

HCG56 is the cluster of tiny PGC galaxies at the bottom of the image.
