Description

Hello my friends.  

NGC 4151 is an intermediate spiral Seyfert galaxy in the constellation Canes Venatici.

The data is from my friend @Nathanael Berger using his DIY 250 mm newtonian. Here in action :



The image is composed of  37 x 5mn L and 45 mn per RGB layer. It is very sharp.

I processed it to enhance the twin jet near in the center. I used some V and B data in the L layer. I chose a soft final rendition.
The twin jet is clearly visible, and is very rarely seen in such evidence.

The final image is cropped. Here are the full frames. The first one with the original spikes (due to the specfic spider) and the seond one with the spikes removed.









Clear skies.
