Title: NGC3344
Post by: Carole on Mar 09, 2019, 00:38:22
I only discovered this pretty little galaxy when some-one posted it on SGL yesterday and since all my planned targets had disappeared by the time the skies had cleared last night, I only really had galaxies to choose from.

Sadly wasn't able to get more than 3 hours on this at Cairds and of course no chance from the back garden.  Would have liked to have had two nights on this, but sadly the forecast was for clouds and rain.

Hopefully can get more data at a later date.

2 hours 55 mins (of which 1 hour 40mins luminance)
SWED120 & Atik428EX
Baader filters LRGB

Luminance was 1 x 1, RGB was x 2
Quotemight try with my SW120,
it's very small, so don't try it with the DSLR.

Is that a star in front or even a supernova at 11 O'clock?

It's a star Hugh, if you looks on the web for any NGC3344 images, they all have it.
