Martin,
I enjoyed seeing an image of NGC 1365 which is
not so deep and not so over-processed that it
overemphasizes the other portions of this galaxy (relative to what exists in the
real universe)
It is nice to see a more realistic rendition, showing how bright the central region of this galaxy really is.
The way the dust lanes spiral inwards near the center (call it a Mini-spiral) is nicely shown.
There is an extremely powerful burst of star formation (blue supergiants, giant HII regions, etc) near the center of NGC 1365, which is highly obscured by dust in optical imagery, but it does cause the large central rise in this galaxy's surface brightness.
This central "starburst" is well shown in near-infrared images such as this one, which drastically reduce levels of dust extinction:
