NGC 1532 in Eridanus
Hey everybody.
I guess like most, imaging time with the weather some (if not all) of us have experienced over the past few weeks has been limited....plus I am hard packing up the house for my move to the US in Jan.....naturally, I am leaving the scope till the very last moment.
Actually, I had planned to post this a few days ago, but literally on the day Rob G nailed an APOD with the same galaxy, using the 1.5m data from Chile  . So, it seemed a little pointless.
Anyway, here 'tis...and as always, thanks for looking and the feedback.
LRGB 10.3.3.3 hours.
