Cartwheel Galaxy in Sculptor

[Hagar (Doug)]

Cartwheel Galaxy in Sculptor A combined image of 7 X 15 minute exposures.
Image has been cropped by 50% as the image is pretty small.
Telescope: Vixen VC200L @ f9
Camera: QHY8
Guided
Calibrated with Flats,Darks and Bias files.

Apparent Magnitude of 10.84.

I think it needs more Focal length and a lot more exposures.

Nice effort Doug, I see what you mean, it is a little bugger, but you have captured it well, and as you say a few more frames could have helped.

A very nice result Doug, very nice indeed. A surprising amount of detail is in there - top job!
