Thanks very much to all who responded. Yes there seems to be

an interaction between M31 and M110. I think this can be seen in

Tony's shot as well. The professional astronomer Paul Hodge also

noted the relationship between the two galaxies.

Rob, that is a truly breath-taking image. You are to be congratulated. Spectacular!

 

Is it my imagination, or do I see a "tail" pointing from M110 toward the core of M31? I wonder if this is a tidal distortion of M110 by the larger galaxy? I've never noticed that "tail" in any other image.

 

Again, congratulations on a fantastic image.
