Playing with a T500mm in Chile, it is possible

Two days ago, I scheduled some pictures from a remote telescope in Chile. As you may know, the Chilean sky is beautiful, one of the best on Earth.
I played with 16 images taken with a L filter and 4 from each R, G and B filters.

L: 16x300"
R: 4x300"
G: 4x300"
B: 4x300"

Here the result:

@lock042 wonderful result! What are we looking at?

You are looking at a galaxy in the constellation of Centaurus. And you see a band of dust in the center too.

It’s a peculiar galaxy, quite famous for its jet of matter, see more info on its wikipedia page (Centaurus A).
