Description

Here is my version of perhaps the least photogenic galaxy we have which is a shame because it is big and in the middle of the sky and available. It has too many large bright stars and is maybe the most unusual color of any target and certainly one of the most difficult to process. I shot this over 2 nights waiting for M97, one night with bad seeing which is my excuse for the bad stars, Lol! I never intended to process the few lights I have for reasons that are now obvious, and I doubt more data would make much difference in my outcome but its better than not imaging and processing at all!
