Description

This image is a combination of just over 7 hours of integration using 180 second exposures. It was taken two weeks after the SN2023 ixi was discovered by Japanese Astronomer, Koichi Itagaki. This is one of my best galaxy images to date and with the help of another amateur astronomer who taught my some new processing techniques, I managed to pull out some more detail, that I had done first time around.
