Ngc300

Hi

Have had pretty bright skies over the last month, but finally got some that was dark enough to find some detail in NGC300. I was initially concerned by the noisiness of the image, but part of the problem seems to be that the galaxy is close enough to resolve some finer detail and this looks grainy - at least that is my excuse....

Could have done with a bit of Ha to bring out the star formation regions, but I have already spent enough (often fruitless) time pursuing this galaxy - next time maybe.

Thanks for looking. Regards Ray
