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.

Details on the page.
Cheers

That's intensely beautiful, Martin. Exquisite colour.
Would love to see a less compressed version.
Very best,

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

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

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
