sorry for hijacking your thread Ezy, but I'd like to get the image orientation worked out.
Geeday 1ponders,

Yeah sorry Ezy, we don't mean to hijack your thread, but I love identifying faint fuzzies in astro images.

In the prior charts I had a setting called [Smart Labels] enabled so it only labels the larger astronomical objects. Of course if you click on it, you'll get a screen full of information that includes the object catalogue name.

Here is another chart which shows the PGC3096124 galaxy as the galaxy arrowed at right.

Arrowed at left is what I believe to be the actual galaxy in Ezys image.

Wow this is fun.
