M64, Black Eye
Photo description / processing
A very "difficult" galaxy to process, it's hard to pull out details, and the aperture is small. But the object is interesting. M 64 is two merged galaxies. The gas-dust disk in the inner part rotates in the opposite direction relative to the rotation of stars and gas on its periphery. Angular size 10'x5.4'.
