NGC 4565 GALAXY

NGC 4565 is an edge-on spiral galaxy 30 to 50 million light years from Earth. Located in the constellation of the coma of Berenices, it was first observed in 1785 by William Herschel and represents an interesting type of spiral galaxy seen from an angle.
In absolute terms, the galaxy is even brighter than the Andromeda Galaxy, although the belonging magnitude is 10.42 (due to the distance) and has a peculiar internal bulge whose nature is not well understood.
This photo was achieved during an intense integration night, where three completely new and somewhat different setups were optimized within a few hours. In my Eq6-r we put the beautiful schmidt newton 10 "class f4 of my friend Claudio Fiore; at the same time Michele Russo has optimized a vintage style setup formed by the historic Vixen VISAC 200 and the Vixen SP-DX mount (with Synscan Eq5 motorization). To these is added an Omegon RC8 reflector, which gave us some problems in post production due to the orientation of the spikes with respect to those of the VISAC.

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.
