About this image

Even after 54mins, this image of the Deep Sky section's November Object of Interest, edge-on spiral galaxy NGC2820, remains faint - but visible! Cloud cover did not help, and I am hopeful of better conditions for the next try.

NGC2814, an edge-on barred spiral galaxy, can just be seen to the right of NGC2820.
