| NOTES |
: |
NGC 1569 is a dwarf irregular galaxy found in the Camelopardalis constellation. I have looked and found very few images of this Galaxy taken by amateurs.It is one of the best known starburst galaxies in the sky. This was a difficult capture in the light polluted skies of the Tampa bay area. |
