Wooo Hooo! Imaging again! ... NCG1365

Hi all,

Finally imaging again!!! ... after a long hiatus associated with camera, observatory building and weather. This is also first imaging light from my new obs!

Alas, I was at the tail end of 1365's imaging season so the windows were short. But I've been wanting to target it since October - so I persevered!

Taken over 3 nights (over 3 weeks because of the weather), I managed LRGB (150, 65, 65, 65). Not sure I've squeazed the best out of the data yet but it looks ok for now. Depending on the feedback I get I may give processing another shot. One thing though, processing galaxies sure is hard!

Anyway, here 'tis:

Hope you enjoy.

Cheers, Marcus
