NGC253, EOS 60D

Loftus, NSW

The Silver Dollar. Some good conditions, but focus issues (resolved - it was the cooling fan), so only 23 exposures. Lots of dust lanes and the brighter star clusters and star forming regions showing up as knots in the spiral arms.

Image scaled to match the CCD image.
