UFO Galaxy over 3 seasons and 7 years ago!

 I've been a bit more focused on my minor planet hunting of late and as such revisiting my deep sky imaging techniques.  I had some crisp, cold, clear skies over the weekend and despite the waxing gibbous moon, was able to get down to magnitude 19.8+ on Saturday.  Here's the UFO galaxy as shot over the weekend.

 


 

Turns out I also shot this galaxy back in 2017, both in Nov and in Dec of 2014!

I can't really say it's all that better but looking at some other photos with comparable equipment, I think I really want color with a CFW but my primary goal is for some MPC which does NOT need color per  does NOT need color per se, so....


Thanks for reading and keep coming back, my goal is to really get more active!
