The Draco Doublet NGC 5905 and 5908

You've surely heard of The Leo Trio. What about The Draco Doublet? There are countless 'pretty pairings' of smaller galaxies and this one was revealed to me by my friend Rick Krejci. NGC 5908 is the 'Edge-On' at lower left while 5905 is the 'Face-On' barred spiral above right. There is precious little information on these particular galaxies but for me they make a beautiful visual set.
