Description

M77 and NGC1055 make a nice pair of galaxies with near perpendicular orientation. They also contrast greatly in their structure with M77 having a dense core and wispy arms while NGC1055 is a more typical spiral. Conditions were excellent for the first half of the session, while the hour of luminance was shot threw a variable layer of high clouds.
