Here's a cute little galaxy that I stumbled on tonight. It has nice structure. I'll need to collect some color data later this week if the weather holds up.

Six 20-minute L images median combined. C14, ST-10XME, Paramount ME. I used unsharp masking to bring out details; for some reason, this image didn't improve much with deconvolution.
