IC 4769 comparison with 2m Faulks Telescope

Click on image to see the full frame version

At some 200 Million Light years and just 1.9' X 1.2' in apparent size, IC 4769 is a challenging
target and requires some good seeing to reveal detail in its spiral arms. Luckily most of the
data for my image above was collected in good seeing

Also note that the AG12 has picked up almost every faint star visible in the Faulks image!
