Description

I decided before I went outside that I was going to try and image NGC 4565 because I've

never imaged this object before and it was located about as far away from the Moon as I could get. The sky was clear when I set up my equipment and polar aligned my mount. However

once I began imaging clouds moved in and I fought with the clouds most of the night. I had

to trash almost half of my light frames. However I did get an image even though it's not the

best image I've seen of this object. The image would have been better had I been able to

get more light frames to help deal with the noise. Anyway with all of that said please enjoy

my first image of NGC 4565 the Needle Galaxy.
