ASTRO: NGC 5005

I acquired the data for NGC 5005 in Canes Venatici two month ago, planning
to add colour later as this galaxy is moderately bright. As it looks like I
won't get any colour this year I'll post the b/w version now.

Taken from the middle of Berlin with a 10" Meade ARC at f/5.7 on a G11
mount, SXV-H9 camera, 39x5 minutes.

Sounds like your weather isn't any better than mine has been. I have a
bunch of half finished ones like this. At least you got the Luminosity
data. I have only one or two frames of at least 10 unfinished until
next year galaxies, mostly Arp's. This one was on my list but then I
got on an Arp kick and never got to it. Doubt I would have even if the
weather had been good. That list is just too long!

You have good detail in the image so it should make for a nice color
image next year. It has a dark lane that seems to go against the flow
of the rest of the galaxy.

Looks great Stefan!

Wow, that's a beauty!

Nice resolution in the arms. Any color planned for this one?
