NGC3628

NGC3628 is the faintest member of the Leo triplet. It is an edge on galaxy with a dark dust lane running through its centre. The dust lane is distorted at the ends due to the gravitational effects of its two neighbours M66 and M65. This image represents the sum of 100 X 15 secs exposures (25 mins total) and was captured using my SC3 at prime on my MN56.
