Description

The Blowdryer Galaxy in the constellation Coma Berenices is an active barred spiral galaxy with extensive star-forming regions. It is a member of the Virgo galaxy cluster.
It was a beautiful night with a gentle breeze and partly very good seeing. The clouds came punctually at 3:00 a.m., but the 7 hours of exposure time were enough anyway. In the full field there are so many galaxies, it takes some time find them all.😀
