Default ASTRO: NGC 3206

NGC 3206 is a rather strange galaxy in UMa. Not an easy object for city
skies.
I needed three nights of which the first was very dusty and the other two
had a more than 50% lit moon high in the sky adding to the city lights.
Actually the moon wasn't that bad, SQM-L was only going up from 18.8 to 18.5
mag.
Image scale is 0.7 arcseconds/pixel.

Taken from Berlin with a 10" Meade ACF at f/8 on a G11 mount, Trius SX694
camera, 25x7,5min L, 22x7,5min CLS, 22x7,5min R, 20x7,5min G, 19x7,5min B.
