Description

Whale and Hockey Stick Galaxy (NGC 4631, NGC 4656)

During the bad weather conditions in january, february and early march here in germany i did remote astrophotography for the first time. The data for this picture was gathered under the clear sky of New Mexico / USA with a 14" telescope. Only 1.5 hours exposure time were processed for the resulting image. So here is what i come up with. This is a preview of the full resolution image.
