Nice group of galaxies which are seperated by just 6' and 1,2'. 5090 appears as a 
bright slightly oval glow without a stellar nucleus in its bright central core. 5091 is 
fairly faint and shows no structure. 5082 appears a bit than 5091. It appears oval 
with a central brightening. The glow of a 6,5 mag star disturbes the observation 
significantly.
