Mike!!
An excellent capture of the unique NGC 5084, which doesn't really look like any spiral galaxy that we are used to seeing!!
Remarkable that such a strange galaxy has had very little attention from professional astronomers.
There is evidence here of multiple planar structures and multiple disks within a single galaxy, at different spatial scales (disks of various sizes) and at several different position angles!
cheers,
Robert
I would be very curious to know what N5084 looks like when your image is displayed at maximum contrast.
