NGC1097 - interacting barred spiral

NGC1097, a barred spiral with a smaller companion galaxy interacting with one of the arms. This galaxy would look great with more aperture, longer focal length and better conditions. Possibly one to aim for in the future.

Canon 300D, unmodded, ED80 and 6.3 FR. 6X240sec @ ISO800. Initial processing in ImagesPlus, curves and levels in PS, noise in NeatImage, and PS for resizing.

Field of view approx 140 X 200 arcmin.
