Hi,

I enjoyed imaging this galaxy, it's a nice field but had a bit of trouble with the brighter stars in the field. It took a bit of time to tone down the bright blue rings around them, probably can do a bit better yet.

Telescope 8” f/4 astrograph on a HEQ Pro 5 mount, orion mini guider.
Unmodded Canon 1100D at ISO 800.
9 x 300 sec subs ISO 800,
21 dark frames, 16 flat frames and 11 bias.
Stacked in DSS and post process in Phototshop.
Cheers,

Justin.
