The original is a terrific image but I'd like to see a high res version with the background brought out like this. Any chance?

Thanks for the responses.


Robert, thank you for the detailed analysis, it was quite interesting reading and wondered which other galaxy was causing this deformation.

Hi Rom, I am working on collecting more data so that I can show the background as you request. Once I am satisfied I have the noise under control I will post a revised image.

Paul, That is a beautiful result, and I think it real cool of you to say thats there is more to learn, Meekness is a virtue in this hobby and your wisdom in it is commendable.
Your time and effort, not only with this image, but also your shairing of you knowledge is admirable, and lastly, the work you have done with your Obs and gear must be a real Buzz for you now with images like this !
Not pulling the wool over your eyes, Ive known you for a while now, and thought to put some due truth and deserved recongnition out there, , ,
Nice going Paul.
