Description

A commonly imaged pair of galaxies and this is my version. Taken in a decent weather week in early April at home on my widefield rig. Work commitments mean I have just gotten around to processing this week.

This is a total of 52x300” Lum plus 26x120” each for RGB, and 15x300” Ha.

Thanks for looking.
