NGC 1566 and supernova

For those not aware and I'm probably one of the last to pick this up, there is a supernova near the centre of NGC 1566. When I noticed it I actually thought I had discovered something. It's the little star just to the right of the centre of the galaxy. For this shot I used 150 minutes of luminance taken last night and colour from an image taken several years ago.

Cheers

Steve
