Ngc1672

This is a fairly neglected galaxy in the Southern Hemisphere and quite faint.
I was testing out a new version of SGPro and the skies cleared last night for a few hours and so I put it into its paces.
Managed 10x5 min subs (2x2) of L:R:B and synthesised the green channel as the clouds were beginning to appear again. Taken with 10"GSO RC and processed in PS3 after DSS stacking. Terrible gradients due to the full moon but ATM I'LL take anything.
It needs far more data as its fainter than I expected but was pleased to capture the outer arms and some detail in the core.
Comments welcomed.
