Description

This image is the some of 2 nights exposures (5th and 6th of April) with an unmodded Nikon d5300 and a TS65F (around 300 120secs unguided exposure at iso 1600) and 1 night (22nd of May) with an Acuter 90-900ed + FR AP 6.7 and a modded Canon 600d (110 120 secs unguided exposures).

Stacking and some processing (star elongation correction) done with Astroart. Combination has been done using AstroPixel processor. First time using this software.

I will try to use this color information to match with this mono image, taken with the Newton 250 F 3.9

Image shows a very bad background. I have deliberately decided to leave it as it is. I have seen that most of the time I was trying to correct it, some details of ngc 4725 were removed.

NGC 4725 is an intermediate barred spiral galaxy with a prominent ring structure about 40 million light-years away in the constellation Coma Berenices. NGC 4725 is a Seyfert Galaxy, suggesting an active galactic nucleus containing a supermassive black hole.

NGC 4725 is the brightest member of the Coma I Group. (Wikipedia)
