Description

I chose NGC4244 because it is big which makes it a nice fit for my 728mm FL, and I also chose it because it is not particularly popular as a target image.  I overlooked that it was an edge on galaxy and the seeing was pretty crappy- I culled 25 subs from the night all of them with an FWHM greater than 6.0.
This is dedicated to my friend @Elmiko who has given me the confidence to post this image.
This is also very funny...
