Description

NGC 1055 is a beautiful galaxy in the constellation Cetus. Since the galaxy offers a lot of fine detail in the spiral arms, I tried to select only the best frames (frames between 0.9 – 1.4”). Since the rainy season is slowly setting in, the weather is and will be more unstable in the near future. Nevertheless, there are always nights that are simply stunning. They make you quickly forget one or two cloudy days. And to be honest, it's "complaining" at a high level when I remember European conditions. But you simply forget that very quickly and get used to these great conditions all too quickly.
