Description

NGC7814 is an aesthetic edge-on spiral galaxy in Pegasus, 33 millions light-years away, with a very sharp dust lane . The background contains also many interesting distant galaxies (in particular in the lowest left corner).

I imaged it last month from a darker site than usual (Bortle 5), with good seeing conditions (FWHM 1.6" on the stack) using my 8" newt.
