Deep Draco trio

Here is the beautiful Draco trio composed by the edge-on spiral NGC 5981, the elliptical NGC 5982 and the face-on spiral NGC 5985.
The long exposure time without Moon allowed to process it deeply and to make the faint galactic cirrus clouds, which are not often seen in this area because very much fainter than in other parts of the Draco constellation. There are also many other galaxies in this field.
