| Description: NGC5614 is the brighter spiral galaxy in this image.
It's quite faint and difficult to resolve. To the immediate lower-left is the
smudge of galaxy NGC5615 and at the bottom of the frame NGC5613. All three
galaxies may well be interacting. NGC5609 is also present at the top-left of the
frame, but is not resolved well.
