Description

NGC3521, also called the Bubble Galaxy, sometimes the foggy one...well, it is surrounded by a lot of intergalactic dust. I have added more subs from TL and reprocessed the entire set in a different way and selected a different format. I stuck to the most original color rendition - meaning the brightest star remained cold and blue. 
Its distance to Earth is most likely still about 26Mio LJ and its diameter about 145000LJ and one can find it in the constellation Leo.
