M88 - M91 and many remote friends in Coma Berenices

M88 is a active spiral galaxy (Seyfert type 2)

M91 (left) is a barred spiral galaxy . Both are located 50-60 Mio light-years.

Many more distant galaxies are visible in this FOV , I checked only one near the bottom left IC3523 , redshift is 0.0739 or a distance of 1.02 Bio lightyears.

The image was recorded in 12 hours in August 2024 at my remote observatory in Hakos-Namibia with a SW Esprit 120ED , ZWO ASI2600MC camera on a 10 Micron 2000HPS mount
