Here is the latest image I took in January.

NGC 2997 is a face-on unbarred spiral galaxy about 25 million light-years away in the constellation Antlia. NGC 2997 is particularly notable for a nucleus surrounded by a chain of hot giant clouds of ionized hydrogen. Seen face-on, NGC 2997 looks similar to M83.

Nice pic.
I thought the Black Hole was normally at the center of the galaxy.
