Hamburger NGC3628

[cometcatcher (Kevin)]

NGC3628 The Hamburger galaxy, the one Messier missed. Part of the Leo triplet, 35 million light yeas away.
I have minimal data for this one so the tidal tail doesn't show well and it's noisy, but I like it as it is. Just pretend it was taken on ISO 3200 film.

Skywatcher 300PDS 12" F5 Newtonian, ZWO ASI 183mm Pro, 120 x 60 seconds LRGB with Svbony filters, NEQ6 Pro modified.

Go Big Kev! You becoming the galaxy man dude, takin over from where the great Lee Borsboom left off you always did put up great efforts but sheesh, your recent work is light years ahead of what you used to produce...you taking imaging steroids or something?

Great stuff

Thanks Mike. The difference is probably from the cooled dedicated astro camera. DSLR's get very noisy here in the tropics. Cooling is very important.

Nice close up Kev.

I like this one. Very well balanced colour, and I don't think the noise you drew attention to is invasive.

[cometcatcher (Kevin)]

Thanks Marc and Mark! I can't spend too much time on them. There are so many I want in that area.

Nice Kevin. The detail is pretty nice. I particularly like the colour. Well done.
