NGC 6951

[Star101]

Taken last night.

WiKi - NGC 6951 (also catalogued as NGC 6952) is a barred spiral galaxy located in the constellation Cepheus. It is located at a distance of about 70 million light-years from Earth, which, given its apparent dimensions, means that NGC 6951 is about 100,000 light-years across. It was discovered by Jérôme Eugène Coggia in 1877 and independently by Lewis Swift in 1878.

 

It was a clear dark night last night. I removed my LP filter as I was having imaging problems and not sure what was causing them. 

I should crop the edges too as this is full image.

Thanks for looking.
