Never heard of this galaxy? Not surprising, it may very well be the only amateur image of it in existence. Why? Well I just grabbed the telescope and moving it to some random unassuming patch of sky that would transit over zenith in a few hours. Was supposed to get twice the amount of data (2 hours of RGB per channel and the rest as Lum) but I ran into some camera driver issues, I have come to the conclusion that my QHY163 doesn't like Bootcamp on my MacBook Pro. Sometimes runs all night, sometimes not :/
Still fiddling with tilt but I'm slowly getting there. Think I've finally narrowed down to where the tilt is coming in so I'm going to do some packing of one corner tonight and then do some more fiddling this Friday night
Anyway, meet PGC9408 and a myriad of other galaxies. Apologies for the dark rings around some stars, star shapes aren't great and deconvolution doesn't like changing star shapes across the field
There appears to be some very faint IFN on the left side of the frame, 2 ADU above the background kind of faint. Considerably more Lum is needed and more than 30 minutes per channel of colour before it's worth even processing into the image.
