With plenty of HII regions spread around it, Barnards Galaxy looks decidedly like a Magellanic Cloud but it's in Sagittarius.
At about 10' X 10' in size it is no where near the size of the LMC/SMC - it's a Mini Mag.
This is the third and last data set from the last image runs I had at new moon.
Seeing was typically pretty ordinary and it was a bit of a quicky but came out ok.
The PL16803 field is pretty big around this object but some galactic dust has shown up in the full frame wide field version, so worth a squizz
.
