Description

I absolutely love the shape of this galaxy, and honoustly thought it would be more difficult to capture. 
So really pleased with the outcome, the details, the colors. It's an amazing exploration to lookup and identify all objects in the neighbourhood, including many quasars and galaxies beyond magnitude 20. 

Conditions were not excellent during acquisition, but maybe the long integration time helped a bit.
