Description

NGC 507 - ARP 229 . Sendhil and I have been interested in shooting uncommon targets that require a lot of integration time. We both worked to get the same image train so we can collect large amount of data and this is one of those targets. NGC507 and NGC508 are the interacting pair and the field is full of galaxies to see.  The galaxies coupled with the huge star HD 8347 dominating the frame makes it an interesting field and challenging to shoot.
This is a close up of this field than the usual widefield done on this area.
