Description

This picture drove me crazy because it had a surprisingly blotchy background, which I tried to flatten in many ways.
Then at a point I gave up and kept working on the image without flattening
Well, I came to the conclusion that the IFN is what is visible "under the wings" of the Antennae, but would love if someone could confirm it.
I only found a few other fellow astrophotographers who came to the same conclusion.
