Greg,

This is a real beauty. I can't believe how you are able to get away with so little total exposure time (yet again). 8O

Greg,
That is a pretty interesting galaxy and you have a mighty fine image of it. Something interesting is going on with the arms or we just have a unusual view from our perspective on Earth.

Sweet image Greg.

That BRC really puts light on the chip in a hurry!
I see a little color bias in the background on my monitor,which is very bright.

A very interesting looking galaxy,


Jason
