This is NGC4631 the Whale Galaxy and its side-kick NGC4627. There are a couple of other faint fuzzies in there as well.

Data captured over a couple of late nights this bank holiday weekend in my back garden using a 150mm refractor and mono CCD camera. LRGB image with 10x600s Lum and 7x600s each of R, G and B, just over 5 hours of precious data.

I struggled to tame the bright & sometimes hazy background sky using my still-developing ninja PI & PS skills lol

CS, Andy
