NGC2997 in Antlia
19 x 10minute subs, darks and flats subtracted
ED120 APO
Orion Starshoot Pro III color CCD.

55 million light years away, this classic and very pretty spiral galaxy peeks at us through the thick veil of starry hosts in our home galaxy.

Small, but nice. Picked up a few faint fuzzies with it too so I am pretty pleased.

I don't like compressing them so much for the forums as they get pretty lossy so you can see a higher resolution version in my image gallery http://www.asignobservatory.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=73&Itemid=112
