Description

Hello Friends,

NGC 3198 is relative small, but very nice spiral galaxy. I have only cropped the FOV a little, since the background is as much interesting as NGC 3198 itself. Again there are dozens of galaxies in the image. Unfortunately I had to downsize the image to approx a third to get reasonable file size. In the full size you would even see more details - but, try to find them all

Please enjoy!
Rüdiger
