I think this image might profit from some star reduction techniques...perhaps dimming them so the galaxy stand out more?

Anyway, lovely work on a difficult subject!

Thanks Peter. I'll try that and see how it looks. This galaxy in particular is somewhat obscured by local stars.

You have also picked up PGC 62815 quite well:

Hubble zoomed in on the center only, for a closeup:

Thanks Allan. It is a bit of a challenging target because it is rather dim.
