About this image

Having recently acquired the fabulous reference book "The ARP Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies", I am embarking on a campaign to see how many of these can be captured using the S50. Taking 5 hours of data enabled me to use 2x drizzle in my PixInsight processing chain thus revelaing more detail in ARP25. It is pleasing to see the perturbed arm of ARP25 which is thought to be due to its proximity to NGC2300.
