Anyone ever imaged Barnard's Galaxy?


Recommended Posts

Don't know if anyone imaged it, but I guess there ought to be amateur images of it out "in the wild".

At ~13.6mag/arcsec2 of surface brightness it is not that faint at all - it is relatively uniformly lit galaxy (no prominent central core) and I guess it should be similar challenge as M33 for example - which has lower surface brightness at 14.1mag/arcsec2. M33 is readily imaged and not that difficult at all, therefore Barnard's galaxy should be similarly easy/difficult (depends how you look at it :D ).
