Description

NGC6822 a.k.a.Barnard's Galaxy is the last of the galaxies in my historical archive and indeed it shouldn't have been there but for an odd attempt at imaging this galaxy from Lincoln, not rising more than 23 degrees above the horizon. Was it even possible? I didn't know. So I tried and something came out which wasn't too terrible and in fact is the lowest I ever went from the UK. That image should have been here if, intrigued by my only image of a local group member, I did it over again from Italy and added H-alpha in the process.
