NGC4762 and 4754 lenticular galaxies
NGC4762 and NGC4754 galaxy pair is actually non-interacting, visual pair placed approximately 55 million light years away. NGC4762 (left) is edge-on…
One more NGC4565 Needle
I have imaged NGC4565 already here and here, but on last Zatom astroparty I took a look onto this galaxy and could not resist to picture is again…
