Description

Shot at the GNTO. We have had lots of smoke and I can see the reflection in the image caused by it. I am not a super big fan of galaxies as I love Nebula much more however, the more I process the galaxy's images the more I appreciate them. Honestly, I need a longer focal length to really get the needed detail but it is what it is.
