Close examination of NGC 1365

I worked a bit more on just NGC 1365 from my wide field Fornax Galaxy Cluster image. I've extracted and highlighted a little more of the wonderful detail this galaxy displays. This galaxy has so much inside it it is well worth the probe I recon

The whole galaxy up close (450k)

The amazing intricate dust lane across the barred spiral (260k)

It is lots of fun working with such a wide field of view when the seeing was good, there is so much that can be extracted
