Default ASTRO: NGC 3652

We had some clear nights in the first half of March with the moon high in the sky, here it was about three quarters full.
NGC 3652 has a “Z” shape which is seldom seen as extreme as here.

Taken from the middle of Berlin with a 10” Meade ACF at f/8 on a G11 mount, Trius SX694 camera, 35x7.5min Lum, 17x7.5min RGB each.

While all sources seem to consider this one galaxy it sure looks like 2
in your image. Most amateur images (not many) of this one also seem to
make it two. However the Sloan image at high resolution looks more like
one after all. I've had this one on my to-do list for a night with 0.5"
seeing but its never happened so I've still not gotten it.
