Great shot. There's a lot of galactic astrophysics going on there. One can almost feel that intergalactic gas sizzle.

Magnificent contrast between the foreground NGC 1365 with its spectacular burst of star formation, versus the dull pink glow of the by comparison enormous but further back rich pensioner dominant elliptical (1399?). You've picked up a hugely extended halo around the big fat one.

Good colour and good processing.

Best,
M&T
