About this image

IC 1613 a tricky faint dwarf Galaxy. Had a go with my Celestron Edge8

With reducer. I managed around 3 hours of data using 400 second subs.

Stacked in DSS and processed in PixInsight. Very difficult to stretch

And get some faint details. Will require many hours of data to get anything decent.
