Ngc 55

Hello.

The seeing was lovely over the nights when I collected this data. So much so that this result far outweighs the data I have on this galaxy taken with the RCOS.

https://www.martinpughastrophotograp.../work#/ngc-55/

Details on the page.

Cheers
Martin

That's intensely beautiful, Martin. Exquisite colour.

Would love to see a less compressed version.

Very best,
M & T

Too kind.

Thank you very much. Yes, the seeing was really good during this time and you can always tell because your scope will complete a focus run very quickly indeed.

cheers
Martin

Excellent picture Martin,
you've gone very deep in such a short time -
there are so many other galaxies showing.

cheers

Hi Martin,
A beautiful rendition - very sharp and awesome colours.
Did you use an AOX for this??

On the large version, I just wonder if I can see some straight edges on the stars as if the AOX had run out of travel somehow....??

Cheers,
Tim
