13 million years ago...

In a galaxy far far away, the photons from galaxy NGC4945 started their long journey only to pass through a small ED100 lens and end up on a Pentax K-5 sensor. I bet the photons are thinking to themselves, "we traveled for 13 million light years to end up like this?"

212 x 1 minute subs, manually guided because PHD wouldn't track. Or I used the wrong settings or something.
