The Flying Saucer Galaxy....NGC 4565

Monday 28th of April 2008 09:05:51 PM

Went for this while I was waiting for NGC4565 to get to a decent altitude so not enough luminance subs ...only 15x3min. Consequently very noisy in the darker regions before stretching so I had to smooth it quite aggressively. I think it was worth it though and hope to add more data later.
