Total exposure time: 6.5 hours. Data acquired with the help of Martin Pugh in New South Wales Australia. With only 1.5 hours of H alpha data gathered for this image, it is not nearly as deep as I would like to have gone so might revisit this area in the future.

Total exposure time: 15.5 hours. Data acquired with the help of Martin Pugh in New South Wales Australia. I used a different processing technique to make a more or less natural colored image from a narrowband data set.

This image was produced entirely from a Narrowband data set using Sulfur, Hydrogen, and Oxygen filters with the resulting image being a combination of a Bi-Color (Hydrogen and Oxygen) and SHO (Sulfur added) modified Hubble pallet image. I am not sure if this technique has been used before but it allowed me to get exactly what I was looking for in the final image.

NGC1365, also known as the Great Barred Spiral Galaxy, is a barred spiral galaxy about 56 million light-years away in the constellation Fornax. Total exposure time 26 hours.
NGC1532 is one of many edge-on spiral galaxies that possesses a box-shaped bulge. The galaxy is clearly interacting with another galaxy, the amorphous dwarf galaxy NGC1531 producing a collision of grand scale.
Total exposure time: 21.5 hours. Data acquired with the help of Martin Pugh in New South Wales Australia.
