That’s a pretty picture. Just look at all that galactic diversity! NGC 3190, NGC 3187, NGC 3193, and NGC 3185 look nothing like each other, but there they are, palling around together. How nice.
I sure am enjoying these daily astronomy pictures! Space is beautiful, and its vastness is almost beyond comprehension. I’ve spent many nights peering through the telescope, taking in what’s out there. Simply amazing.

Wonderful!
I saw this cluster of galaxies a few years ago on a starchart and it’s one of my ‘must sees’ each Spring when Leo pokes it’s head above the horizon.
The item on the far left (far right in the scope) is pretty dim visually, but, can be seen in a 10” scope.
The one in the middle has a nice write up in wikipedia:

The one next to the star is very pretty.
The barred spiral is pretty dim too, and, about all you can see is the central bar.
