Hi folks,
have put in almost 11 hours on this object battling pretty poor conditions over the last month to add to it.
Left out 2 hours of Ha that i took as I'd need heaps more and am ready for another object


The extra colour really made the difference.
But I think this really needs a larger aperture, or at least
20+ hours to start resolving the really faint stars within the arms.
If the weather allowed me to image night after night, would have kept on going with this.
But there are other galaxies in the area I want to get down as I haven't imaged them for a long while.

Here's my effort if you wish to have a look.

All the best
