Galaxy NGC1097 in Fornax

This is pretty pathetic compared to other pics I've seen. And it's tricky finding galaxies big enough and bright enough for small scopes. But if I never saw any other pics of it, I wouldn't think it was too bad, if that makes any sense.

Taken over 4 nights with night temps rising here in NQ, makes for imaging faint stuff difficult. 26c here tonight. Details in the pic. Full frame at astrobin.
