Galaxy IC342 surrounded by Milky Way dust

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Galaxy IC342 can be found in a dusty region, 10 degrees from the Galactic Equator but that dust is not very bright. Almost all IC342 images show just the Galaxy, not the dust in the surrounding region.

The inverted image is annotated and i added surface brightness data for a couple of faint Galaxies. KK35 or PGC166077 with a surface brightness of 26.85 mag/arcsec² was thought to be a Dwarf Galaxy but it most likely is an outher region of IC342.

Esprit 100 Refractor/ QHY16200 CCD @-20C.

271x300 sec Luminance (22.6 hrs)
