IC356 a.k.a. Arp 213 - another hidden galaxy

IC 356 is a Sb type galaxy in the constellation Camelopardalis. It probably is one of the better examples of a disk rather than a spiral galaxy, featuring only a very weak spiral pattern mainly visible in the dark molecular clouds. Chip Arp lists it as object 213 in his famous catalogue of peculiar galaxies in the category "irregularities,absorption, and resolution".

While IC 356 is of decent size, only a few images can be found on astrobin. Like its cousin IC342, the hidden galaxy, it is highly obscured by dust, but more yellowish while IC342 shows more redish/magenta colors.

Data were taken on Jan 20, 25, and on March 8, 9, and 11.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
