Description

This is six hours of integration on NGC 1499 over four nights from early December through Early February. I unfortunately lost all imaging time in January due to equipment issues. I was really impressed to pick up a lot of background galaxies from the Perseus-Pisces Supercluster. UGC 2885 is especially obvious under the dusty area near the right side of the image.

I plan to return to Perseus next year and use this image as the first panel of a three panel mosaic stretching out to IC 348.
