Hey cheers guys, it is a rather extensive object when you dig deep.

The most amazing thing about this result for me is that it was captured with just 2hrs of exposure time in 5min subs from light polluted Newcastle...we live in good times for imaging

It would be good to do a really deep Lum (ala my Cen A) from a perfect dark sky with this scope, now that would be interesting, I am sure there are many background galaxies.
