Great pair of interacting galaxies Jimi.

This pair is difficult to resolve under typically German skies (48°N-54°N) because of its low altitude. I could never detect the spiral structure nor the interacting structure between the galaxies with my 16". From La Palma (29°N) these structures became much easier to detect, even with smaller aperture (14,5")

Rainer Mannoff observed this group also from Marokko (30°N) with 16" and saw pretty much the same (sketch

We both could not see the faint DS and the fainter galaxy in the E.
