Hi Dan. Another superb image in LRGB light remotely using the facilities at the El Sauce Observatory (Rio Hurtado, Chile) and this time it's NGC 4499 (PGC 41537), especially on the flickr site. A very nice spiral galaxy capture with excellent contrast, showing a nice core and spiral arms details. Thanks for sharing another great work using the big "light buckets" at the El Sauce Observatory with us Dan and the best of wishes for many more opportunities like this again soon.
