Description

Floating silently in space.... I invested some time to accumulate a sold amount of data for an image that, I believe, reaches the limits of my equipment. Shot over three cloudy months in the southern spring. Approximately 11 million light years away, dust lanes and the galaxy's characteristic 'mottled' appearance are visible.
