Ngc 300

Hi everyone, during the Christmas break I processed a new image of another galaxy in the sculptor, in this case it is NGC300, a galaxy rather generous in size but with a lower surface brightness than the nearby NGC253.

NGC 300 (Full Res)

As it was with NGC253 this field is also full of background galaxies which is one of the things I like most of this image. I added some H-alpha exposures to increase the visibility of the many HII regions scattered a bit all over the galaxy disc.

About 15 hours of total exposure, other details are reported on the image's link. My slow re-learning of the elaboration process continues: D
