Description

Taken from my back yard late 2021. I rediscovered the images doing a clean up of a hard drive!
I really enjoyed the challenge of processing this, and seeing the numerous small galaxies emerge.
NGC 1316 is the largest galaxy in this field, aka Fornax A. It is interacting with the adjacent  NGC 1317 galaxy.
