Desperately seeking interesting objects.
I found one more galaxy cluster, centered the camera around the galaxy IC 4020, a small and weak galaxy.
To find what's there I need some help from a plate solving Astrometry.net:

The bright star near center belongs to the constellation Canes Venatici. |

A small dim trace of the galaxy, magnitude 15 , even with a record long exposure for me of 165 minutes wasn't enough. |
