Description

Looking for something that isn't frequently imaged for galaxy season. Last year I chose NGC 5579, which was out of the range of decent expectation for my gear and seeing conditions. This year I went for something a little closer, choosing the 47 million light year distance NGC 3198. It is still a stretch to acquire fine detail, but came out much better than last year's oddball.
