Description

This is one of my oldest acceptable astro pictures, dating back to 2013, when I was using a basic C8 and a modified Canon EOS 450D to take pictures. NGC3344 is a face on, multiarm spiral galaxy with a small, round, bright core in Leo Minor, located 24 Mly away. Its angular size is 7 arcmin.
