In the center is NGC2683, called the Ufo Galaxy. It is a magn. 10.6 object I photographed last night. It is at a distance of 16.000k ly from us. This is a stack of 22x10min ISO800 autoguided (totalling 3hr40min). It was a very challenging object to photograph. At the end of the session my telescope was totally covered with ice.
This is a cropped version after extensive postprocessing.....
And with a lot of work I could also extract a very gaint background galaxy. I'm still investigating which one it is and what it's magnitude is.
