Description

I had last imaged NGC4725 in 2005 (...before Astrobin...) and my current equipment is not really suited to small galaxies but I wanted to capture this beautiful spiral, its weird companion NGC4747 but most importantly, the faint planetary LoTr 5 - PK339+88.1.

Check the annotated version for the many background galaxies and other brighter objects.

For a beautiful, high resolution version of NGC4725 see this one (https://www.astrobin.com/full/78ky7z/L/) from Sergey Trudolyubov.

For an incredible vista including the planetary see this one (https://www.astrobin.com/full/rcf9eu/0/) from Nicolas Kizilian.

RGB captured with the 92mm f/7 Stowaway. L and OIII with the 152mm f/7.5 StarFire EDF. OIII signal for the planetary added to both G and B before LRGB re-combination. All using Voyager Array for the tandem setup.
