Description

This is 11 h of Lum and 18 h of RGB (Astrodon series e filters) collected by Rodd Dryfoos in CT, USA during Jan - March 2017. The data suffered from light pollution and he posted it on SGL for help. I had a go at the data and after some struggle I ended up with a decent version that Rodd now kindly allow me to post here on Astrobin. Thanks Rodd!

There is much info in the data allowing the gravitational trail to be clearly visible, together with numerous faint fuzzies.
