SILVER COIN - SCULPTOR - NGC253 Galaxy

[EzyStyles]

Took this 2 nights ago when I did my over nighter run. Just managed to take some time tonight to process it. I was pleased with the colours from this galaxy during the early morning hours right before the sun rise. 16 x 84 second exposure stacked in registax. darks auto-subtracted.

You guys getting sick of me yet? ;)

comments welcome.

Good one Eric,

Thats in my opinion, is the best Southern galaxy after the Magellanic clouds.

You may need to try it diagonally to get it all on the chip.

Eric, Eric, Eric....I am bewildered....your prodigious output is overwhelming...but very welcome with your daily/hourly posting of these wonderful images.

Great job and keep 'em coming, mate. I just can’t figure out how you do all this stuff, and so well.

Cheers

Dennis

Another great capture, your inspiring me no end ..
Thanks.

thanks Mr h0ughy. the core wasnt that bright. I've adjusted the contrast so the details of the surrounding galaxy will show up. lol , if I could live in an observatory i would :)

[EzyStyles]

thanks Lester. the galaxy was acutally diagonally at the start. I rotated the DSI side on but still can't the the entire thing.

[EzyStyles]

many thanks Dennis. I'm honored that you like them :) will try to produce as many as possible but also depends on Melb weather which has been terrible lately :(

[EzyStyles]

lol thanks Al. Melb weather doesnt look good at all over the weekend :( so you have to give me additional time to produce them all :)

nice accurate colours there, the cores of galaxies are usually yellow due to the high population of older yellow stars.
