Description

Our astronomy club has a monthly target challenge, and NGC 5774 was this months target.  71 million light years away, and pretty dim next to the bright NGC 5775 this was a very tough target.  But it is a very cool target as well.  An edge on galaxy next to a spiral.  Worth the try.  My processing could have been a little better, but I am getting there.  Clear Skies
