Default ASTRO: NGC 4236

I imaged NGC 4236 in five nights in April. As it is quite low at +2deg
declination I took all frames with 2x2 binning to avoid oversampling. With
the configuration used for this shot that gave an image scale of 0.95
arcseconds/pixel.

Taken from Berlin with a 10" Meade ACF at f/8 on a G11 mount, Trius SX 694
camera, 64x5min L, 29x5min G, 31x5min each R and B.

My seeing rarely allows better than 1" seeing though I often push things at 0.8". This is a rather faint one for your bright skies. I can see needing all those nights to pull it out of the bright skies of Berlin.
