That's a charming unloved galaxy, balancing the faint fuzzies with bright stars. The outer ring seems a little bluer with possible new star formation without the HII fireworks. I shall now have another faint fuzzy tour which always makes me smile especially when a tiniest faint fuzzy shows a hint of a bright nucleus.

Even with the slight colour noise the detail more than makes up for it
Thanks Col, ha ha yeah, it would have looked a little insignificant in a 4deg X 4deg field

Actually, I have cut back too...hard when you live in the same building as a multi award winning craft beer brewery

Lovely interesting looking galaxy Mike. Good detail in some of its little friends. I'll have to add it to my to-do list.

Thanks Geoff quite a few galaxies around this size up there this time of year, usually get overlooked though for the bigger more showy characters. I'm currently hitting another one of these modest criters right now

A nice myriad of smaller galaxies in this field too, but the main galaxy is really nice. I like the detail around the core area and how the outer arms almost look like they are about to form a ring. An interesting galaxy.

Yes, the subtle near circular single arm is intriguing
