Very true Greg. Unfortunately the Southern Hemisphere lacks the variety of medium sized galaxies compared to the North. Galaxies are my favorite targets, wish I could move north.

Dave,
It took about a month. When imaging galaxies I usually throw out 50% of my luminance images due to poor seeing.

Hello Paul,
At least it's an improvement over previous attempts.

Done. I've balanced the background to a more natural black. Thanks for your feedback Marcus.

Hello Leon,
It needs more exposure to bring out the extensive arms on either side of the galaxy.

Excellent work -- the colours look fantastic.

Humayun,
It's good to finally show a new image instead of reprocessed ones.
Well done on your latest image.
