NGC2403 Spiral galaxy

[Sparrow]

Galaxies are not really my forte but I keep trying in the hope fo getting it right:). When I look at my raw data I'm not that impressed and think I may need to go for longer subs on a night when the breeze isn't blowing the scope about - trouble is, clear skies are so rare, I can't waste nights like last night even if there is a breeze - played havoc with the guiding.

3 1/2 hours of subs - mixture of 3 and 4 minutes at ISO800

you say that galaxies are not your forte....but that really is a very nice image. I'd be well chuffed!

Great image I would be well happy with that result. Spent hours last night trying to find M101 again only to get much the same results the second time round which was very frustrating. Turned my camera on the Leo Triplets at 3am and grabbed a few subs as this was my first sighting of them.

Thanks everyone. Yes Luke - I didn't know about it until I was wading through the star charts the other night.
