UGC 5936 is a ring galaxy about 340 million light-years distant in northeastern Leo Minor just a half degree from much closer Arp 206. I see the upper corner...

I Zw 279 or how to write several paragraphs with nothing to write about. But I like to type so here goes, well, nothing much. As I've mentioned before, ring...

NGC 5534/Markarian 1379 is a very strange galaxy in western Virgo, almost into Libra. That may explain why a Virgo galaxy is in an area where virtually no...

The three galaxies in the center are the WBL Galaxy Group. NGC 5851, 5852 and PGC 53961 at about 310 million light-years in southeastern Bootes. Several...

On January 23, 1784 William Herschel found a galaxy. He recorded the RA but not the declination except in general terms. He never went back to it. Tempel...

UGC 6446 is a low surface brightness, face on spiral in Ursa Major just under the bowl of the Big Dipper. Redshift puts it about 38 million light-years...

While nearly all my images are oriented north up. This galaxy looked "upside down" to me so I'm breaking my rule and displaying this field south at the...

NGC 5676 is a two armed barred? spiral whose arms as so knotty and ill defined after a point that it is almost a flocculent galaxy. NED classifies it as...

This is my annual update to my movie of the proper motion of Barnard's Star. It now spans 10 years (10 animation frames) from 2007 to 2016 (July). Nothing...

Space Banter has again screwed up and lost a post forcing a repost. LEDA 087293 is a strange ring galaxy in southwest corner of Bootes. NED classifies it as,...

Yet another repost thanks to Space Banter loosing it after less than a week. Site is highly unreliable of late. Reposting. Rick __________________ NGC 5894...

IC 2910 as a barred spiral with a huge halo. Unfortunately the night I took this was very poor with rather thick high clouds which severely harmed both...

NGC 2182, 2183 and 2185 are reflection nebulae in southeastern Monoceros. The area around the latter two is chock full of Young Stellar Objects and...

HCG 70 is a group of 7 galaxies in southeastern Canes Venatici. 3 of the galaxies are about 380 million light-years distant and 4 are about 850 million...

NGC 5149 and 5154 are a pair of galaxies in Canes Venatici discovered by William Herschel on May 1, 1785. They are about 270 million light-years distant by...

NGC 5964/IC 4551 is a low surface brightness barred spiral with a bright bar but faint arms. To my eye the bar is somewhat bowed rather than straight as most...

NGC 5183 was my original object as it is a Sb pec galaxy per NED and would fit into Arp's "One Heavy Arm" classification. Oddly the arm starts out rather...

NGC 6007 is a rather strange looking spiral in Serpens Caput about 480 million light-years distant. The arm structure is quite unique, far from a classic...

KKH 88 is a blue dwarf galaxy in Draco under the bowl of the Little Dipper. It could pass for a planetary blue egg but is a galaxy. It is about 44 million...
