Interesting object. Looks like you got some detail which look like star
forming regions and some nebula or HII regions.

My shot of this guy is in dire need of reprocessing. It was one of my
early efforts and shows my lack of processing skills at the time. But
it does show the HII regions. I think the two obvious ones in John's
shot are actually red stars as the color isn't quite right for HII and
there are red stars at those locations though one has an HII region
right beside it so he may have picked up both as that lower red-orange dot.

Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct.
Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh".

Great image John. I just thought that it was time for a galaxy for a change.
