      Description

      Here is the Bubble Galaxy, otherwise known as NGC 3521. Similar to my Fornax A process, there was a lot of dynamic range to deal with and the colours were a pain to get right. Suffice to say this is not as clean as I would want it to be. I think to truly do it justice, you'd need at least 20 hours on the thing, but beggars cannot be choosers.
