Condition: VG6
Location: Home, Spearfish: 44.49, -103.87

10:16PM

Target: NGC 4111, MCG 7-25-26[1]
Const: Canes Venatici
RaDec: 12h07m +43.03
Type: Galaxy
Scope: AT102ED
Setting: 55x, AV

AV is not required for detection, however it helps out with determining the shape. This appears to be half way between edge on and face on, however I'm seeing a brighter line running down the length of it which usually appears in edge-on galaxies.

My atlas shows a few other nearby galaxies, and I can detect other areas of noise nearby. But I'm not confident enough with any of those observations to include them in the sketch.

Target: NGC 3941, MCG 6-26-51[1]
Const: Ursa Major
RaDec: 11h52m +36.59
Type: Galaxy
Scope: AT102ED
Setting: 55x
Image: ../images/2024-05-28_NGC3941.jpg[2]

Seated near the middle of a triangular pattern of stars. The whole area looked interesting so I attempted to capture more of it in the sketch.

This one also appears to be half way between edge on and face on. A linear gradient of brightness from core to edge.
