This is one of my favourite southern spiral galaxies!! A wider field of view would show the full extent of its majestic spiral arms!! This galaxy doesn't receive as much attention from amateur astrophotographers as it should.

Beautiful picture. Bad description. Fresh star formation is not golden. It is blue.ESA/HEIC wrote:
Golden rings of star formation
The rings of star formation are bluish even in the picture.

Ann I just love how you are passionate about the colour blue, it is also my favourite colour! Also I'd like to mention that most OIII emission is green but some of it is blue!Ann wrote:Beautiful picture. Bad description. Fresh star formation is not golden. It is blue.ESA/HEIC wrote:
