IC 342 The Hidden Galaxy

IC 342 The Hidden Galaxy

Given the state of Okanagan weather this fall, twelve images of 5 min each were taken remotely on itelescope.net in New Mexico using their TOA 150 mm refractor and an ST-2000XM CCD Camera on Nov 21. These were combined in Deep Sky Stacker and processed minimumly in PS Elements esp with NIC filters to sharpen and remove the noise.
This Galaxy would be one of the brightest galaxies in our night skies if it were not located near our Milky Way galactic centre where it is partially obscured by dust and gases.
