Myriad of galaxies
I love this image for several reasons. First of all, you can probably see 100+ of galaxies in this single frame. Considering the huge amount of stars in every galaxy itself, one can only imagine how many stars are actually in this image. Each galaxy in itself is quite beautiful, and it really gives a "depth" in this image to see so many of them at the same time. The second reason I like this picture is because it is so sharp all the way to the edges. The Samyang lens was open all the way to max (F/2.0), and even in this configuration it is tack-sharp all the way to the edges. It just keeps surprising me all the time. Some of the galaxies visible in this image are M58, M84, M86, M87, M88, M90, M91, M98, M99 and M100.
